Albuquerque

Thriving Southwestern spirit, more than 300 years of history and a unique blend of cultures make Albuquerque one of the most colorful cities in the United States. At once playful and laid back, the classy bohemian personality of this city results from a mash-up of Latin, Indian and European flavors fused to road-trip-era Americana. Albuquerque is a modern city of a million residents where gentlemen ranchers don their finest Stetsons to visit the opera and lawyers saunter into work wearing hand-tooled boots. Downtown offers sassy, margarita-filled nightclubs and a few cool lounges, and every corner of the city is bursting with restaurants serving countless variations of the spectacular local cuisine.
