Madrid

Once practically a ghost town, with its origins in early 20th century coal mining, Madrid is now an interesting community of artists and other creatives. For a start, there are numerous galleries along what’s called the Turquoise Trail. Plus, you can see the fruits of recent artistic labors in the form of Origami in the Garden – huge origami-shaped sculptures against a desert backdrop.

Otherwise, this quirky town is in a good location for exploring some of New Mexico’s characteristic epic landscapes, like the nearby Oritz Mountains.

Gallup

Set on the edge of a Navajo reservation, Gallup is sometimes known as the “Heart of Indian Country”. Accordingly, there’s a high population of Native Americans (almost 44%) and in the summer months Native American dances can be witnessed here. But at all times of the year you can learn more about native culture at the Navajo Code Talker Museum.

Formerly on the old Route 66, and being the largest town between Albuquerque and Flagstaff, Gallup has seen many people drop by on roadtrips, including famous faces like Humphrey Bogart, Katharine Hepburn and John Wayne – all of whom stayed at the iconic 1930s El Rancho Hotel & Motel.

Tucumcari

Tucumcari is notable for its Historic District, which consists of buildings in and around its Main Street. These include the impressive Rock Island-Southern Pacific Train Station, dating back to 1926, and the Odeon Theatre, which was built in 1937 and is still in operation. But for even older history, you can head to the Mesalands Dinosaur Museum with its surprising collection of skeletons and fossils from millions of years ago.

Tucumcari also has a strong relationship with pop culture, having been featured in films, mentioned in songs, and name-dropped in episodes of boxsets from NCIS to Supernatural.

Galisteo

Galisteo, in Santa Fe County, has had its fair share of film fame. It’s been the backdrop for many a Western, including Crazy Heart, Young Guns, and Silverado amongst others. Even the fantasy movie Thor was partly filmed here.

But it’s more than just a shooting location. There are slices of history to be had in Galisteo too, such as the Casa Grande Trading Post to the northwest. And if you want to get out into the desert scenery yourself, heading to Galisteo Basin Preserve boasts hiking paths and mountain bike trails alike.
