Sights In The Southwest: Day 9

On our way back to Santa Fe, we visited El Santuario de Chimayo. The church is known for it's amazing healing powers and we saw several groups making pilgrimages to the church when we were on our way. Since services were in progress when we arrived we just took a quick look around before we continued on our way.


Once in Santa Fe, we dropped by the farmer's market to check out the offerings of the local farmers and community. The farmer's market was surprisingly small, but I suppose we are spoiled being from California.


After the farmer's market, we walked around historic downtown Santa Fe and found the oldest house, De Vargas Street House, and church, San Miguel Mission, in Santa Fe. Both structures are listed on the oldest building in the United States.
