Santa Fe National Trip: October 6 - 10, 2014
October 6 - 10, 2014
This hotel holds many memories for a lot of us and many stories told and untold. The hotel and La Plazuela Restaurant have been recently renovated to make it even more beautiful. Complete with great food and shops, the location cannot be beat for walking to galleries, restaurants and local attractions. Rendezvous in the La Fiesta Lounge and return after dinner for dancing nightly in the La Fiesta Lounge on-site to a variety of groups and styles of music from jazz to country.
Thirteen years before Plymouth Colony was settled by the Mayflower Pilgrims, Santa Fe, New Mexico, was established with a small cluster of European type dwellings. It would soon become the seat of power for the Spanish Empire north of the Rio Grande. Santa Fe is the oldest capital city in North America and the oldest European community west of the Mississippi. The city has been the capital for the Spanish "Kingdom of New Mexico," the Mexican province of Nuevo Mejico, the American territory of New Mexico (which contained what is today Arizona and New Mexico) and since 1912 the state of New Mexico. Santa Fe, in fact, was the first foreign capital overtaken by the United States, when in 1846 General Stephen Watts Kearny captured it during the Mexican-American War.
