| With an amazingly rich history, Santa Fe has remained an arena for art, ideas, talent, and culture down through the centuries. If the past is your interest, there is plenty of American, Indian, Mexican, and Spanish history to unravel. It’s an easy stroll to the Cathedral from Casa Gabriella or to the San Miguel Mission, the oldest church in America where construction began in 1610. A visit to the Georgia O’Keefe Museum and the Palace of the Governor’s Museum is also close at hand. In addition, a short five minute drive will bring you to the Children’s Museum and the Indian Cultural Museum to name just a few.

Of course the Plaza is the unparalleled hub of downtown life and it is only one-half mile from your front door. Casa Gabriella is only one-eighth mile to the heart of famed Canyon Road and its art venues. Gallery hopping is “de rigor” in Santa Fe, with Friday evenings being set aside for wine tasting and art openings - a jaunt between galleries is a delightful outing. Whether it is the Santa Fe Opera or weekends at the Flea Market, opportunities for exploration are plentiful.

Perhaps you’ll enjoy wandering the streets in search of that quintessential adobe. Terrific restaurants abound in Santa Fe, as dining is another enjoyable art form. May we recommend you walk to The Compound (one block away) or Geronimo's (two blocks away) from Casa Gabriella for an exceptional meal? Savor a book over coffee and meet locals at the Downtown Subscription, on the corner of Garcia and Acequia Madre (five blocks away), or enjoy the Farmers’ Market, open weekends during the summer.
You may prefer to have an “in-house” celebration, in which case, a private chef or caterers will be happy to make it memorable and deliciously easy. Care to raft, ski, bike, horseback ride, indulge in a massage, or take a hot air balloon? Whatever your desire, easy reservations can be made for these activities and more by using the management of Casas de Santa Fe. Their full-service concierge is a perfect complement to your vacation.
