The Best Sight in Taos, New Mexico

Background Illustration for Sights

For a town its size, Taos contains an impressive collection of fine art museums and other historic sites of note. Most of these are in the center of town and within an easy walk of Taos Plaza, but you'll need a car to visit the Millicent Rogers Museum, Rancho de Taos, and a few other notable sites.

Kit Carson Park & Cemetery

This centrally located town park is a good place to rest or get active. Landscaped with mature trees and lilacs that bloom in the springtime, it has facilities for baseball, soccer, basketball, tennis, and a .75-mile track towards the east of the park as well as trails throughout for walking and jogging. The perfect site for summer concerts and outdoor family films and other events, the 19-acre park also holds the Kit Carson Cemetery, the final resting place for many famous (and infamous) Taos characters including Kit Carson, Padre Martinez, and Mabel Dodge Luhan.
