Situated at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Santa Fe is unique by itself. Patronized and established by Juan Martinez de Montoya, in 1607, this capital city of the state of New Mexico has a charm of its own. It is also fondly referred to as "City Different." At a height of 7000 ft above sea level, Santa Fe is the highest state capital in the U.S.

It boasts a rich cultural heritage and tradition, making it a favorite tourist destination. The city buildings are reminiscent of ancient architecture. The Spanish Territorial and Pueblo style of architecture makes the city different and a feast for the eyes.

The city is famous as one of the foremost cultural centers and has some of the finest museums and art galleries, displaying artifacts of the contemporary and the classical styles. There are notable sculptures, depicting animals and birds. There are many cultural activities conducted for the tourists regularly.

The significance of the place also lies in its being one of the top art markets in U.S, after New York and Los Angeles.
