Terrific and Unexpected
Have been to SF many times and can't imagine how I missed this gem. Easy to navigate, beautifully presented narratives provide the visitor great insight into the history of NM. Great foundation of background info for the first time visitor, for sure. We spent 2 hours and were very pleased we did.

Loved the special exhibit on Sante Fe Indian Market
I ran out of steam before finishing the permanent exhibit on New Mexico History. But I really enjoyed the special exhibit on the annual Indian Markets through the years. The displays include some exquisite baskets, pottery and jewelry. If the exhibit is still there when you visit I highly recommend viewing it.
