Kit Carson Park

Parks, Memorials / Monuments, Taos


Fodor's Review:

The noted pioneer is buried in the park that bears his name. His grave is marked with a cerquita (a spiked wrought-iron rectangular fence), traditionally used to outline and protect burial sites. Also interred here is Mabel Dodge Luhan, the pioneering patron of the early Taos art scene. The 32-acre park has swings and slides for recreational breaks. It's well marked with big stone pillars and a gate.
