Your guide to Santa Fe

Introduction

Santa Fe is North Americaā€™s oldest capital city and the oldest European establishment west of the Mississippi. But those long roots simply set the scene for the destination that calls itself the City Different. Whether itā€™s diving into Santa Feā€™s diverse art scene, staying in one of the cityā€™s traditional casita vacation rentals, or exploring the historic downtown surrounding the Palace of the Governors, everything in the area is sprinkled with a taste of Old West charm.

Just how common are sunny days in Santa Fe? While the national average is 205 days, the New Mexico capital averages 325 days of sunshine annually. At a 7,200-foot altitude, Santa Fe temperatures are moderate, with the hottest temperatures in July and August in the 80s and 90s Fahrenheit, but generally only three to six days of anything higher than that.

But ultimately, the city is proud that its low humidity and clear skies make it one of the countryā€™s most comfortable climates.

The 20.5-acre garden features native plants mingling with other species brought in to show how they can thrive in the arid conditions.
