Santa Fe sits in the Sangre de Cristo foothills as the capital of New Mexico and the oldest state capital in the United States, a city of adobe buildings, art galleries, and layered cultures. Santa Fe Plaza anchors downtown, where the Palace of the Governors, the oldest continuously occupied public building in the country, faces a square that has served as a market and gathering place for centuries. Canyon Road, a historic street lined with galleries and studios, draws art lovers from around the world, while the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum celebrates an artist whose desert paintings reshaped American art.
