Page after page brims with New Mexico's best: ghost towns, quaint bed and breakfasts, quirky cares, ancient Indian ruins, isolated museums and breathtaking scenery. Join the author for a look at 185 major attractions and numerous minor attractions that evoke the past and suggest the future. The Gila Cliff Dwellings preserve the memory of the ancient Pueblo Indians of the Mogollon culture, who lived in the area for 100 years beginning in 1280. Acoma Pueblo is the oldest continuously inhabited community in the country; when the Spaniard Coronado visited in 1540, it was already 400 years old. History comes alive behind the adobe walls of the Kit Carson Home in Taos, as it does at the D. H. Lawrence Memorial near San Cristobal. The Billy the Kid Museum has a wanted placard signed by Lew Wallace, one-time territorial governor of the state and author of Ben-Hur. The town of Rosewell played host to a still-controversial UFO sighting back in 1947; many residents remain convinced that aliens visit our planet. Nowadays at Carlsbad Caverns, the sights, while readily believed by all who see them, remain awe-inspiring.
