There are museums, and then there are "living museums" that the kids (and mom and dad) will surely find interesting. El Rancho de las Golondrinas is such a place. See attractions like original colonial buildings on this site that date back to the early 18th century as well as other buildings that have been reconstructed to reflect the style of that time period. The buildings and other items presented here tell the fascinating story of the early settlement of New Mexico. The museum is closed from November through March.

Sometimes, nothing can express the perfect sentiment like a card or a postcard. In an era where everyone seems to be emailing or texting one another, the Marcy Street Card Shop gives you the chance to do something different and memorable. Choose from their highly impressive selection of cards, postcards, and other items that will surely put a smile on the face of someone special, as well as give them a great keepsake of your feelings for them that truly demonstrates a much more personal touch.

When you plan a romantic evening out, get dressed up to enjoy a date night of classic performances with The Santa Fe Opera. Even though the season is relatively short (July and August only), planning early for that special evening will definitely pay off. Purchasing your seats and making the arrangements with plenty of lead time will ensure that you not only get great seats, but you can also plan to enjoy additional amenities. You'll want to get to the venue early to enjoy a pre-performance buffet and then mingle for a while as the two of you marvel at the breathtaking beauty of the Opera House itself.

There's nothing like seeing a performance at The Lensic, Santa Fe's Performing Arts Center. Some of the world's finest dancers, actors and musicians can be regularly found on this entertainment venue's classically-styled stage. After extensive restoration, the center re-opened its doors in 2001, and has since continued the tradition of presenting an impressive schedule of must-see performances that have continued to delight audiences of all ages.
