Minigolfa aplis pilsētā Santa Fe: 9 bedrītes, pars 26

Maršruts beidzas Footbridges Park parkā, Santafe. Karte ir īsta pilsēta, un bumbiņa ripo pa tās īstajām ielām, izmantojot vietējās ievērojamas vietas kā robežas katrai bedrītei. Šis ātrais 9 bedrīšu maršruts aptver 3 jūdzes, ko var noiet kājām. Skips labi pārzina šos stūrus un ir vietējais gids, lai gan lielāko daļu laika viņš pavada, meklējot drupačas.

Loretto Chapel

Asās arkas un stāvās līnijas, kas raksturīgas gotiskā renesanses stilam, nosaka Loretto Chapel izskatu. Atrodas Santafē, Ņūmeksikā, šī ēka ir kapela, kas atspoguļo konkrētu reliģiskās arhitektūras laikmetu. Lai gan tā sāka savu vēsturi kā Romas katoļu baznīca, laika gaitā šīs vietas mērķis ir mainījies. Mūsdienās tā ir privātīpašumā esošs muzejs, un tā kalpo arī kā kāzu kapela tiem, kas apmeklē pilsētu. Tā joprojām ir nozīmīga ievērojama vieta reģionā tiem, kas interesējas par šī reģiona reliģisko ēku vēsturi. Jūs varat redzēt, kā gotiskā renesanses stila elementi to atšķir no citām ēkām apkārtnē, padarot to par galveno apskates objektu tiem, kas izpēta Santafē vietējo arhitektūru.

Kit Carson Monument

Paskatieties uz augšu uz augsto, konusveida akmeni, kas ir Kit Carson piemineklis. Šī struktūra ir obelisks, kas ir nozīmīga ievērojama vieta Santa Fe pilsētā. Pastaigājoties pa pilsētu, jūs varat atpazīt šo pieminekli starp vietējām apskates vietām. Esmu atklājis, ka akmens augstums padara to par noderīgu orientieri, pārvietojoties pa tuvējām ielām. Neatkarīgi no tā, vai jūs apmeklējat pilsētu, lai iepazītu tās vēsturi, vai arī vienkārši šķērsojat to, tā ir izteiksmīga pilsētas fiziskās struktūras daļa, kuru ir viegli pamanīt no attāluma. Tas kalpo kā skaidrs vertikāls marķieris apgabalā, kur arhitektūra bieži ir horizontālāka, padarot to par uzticamu ceļvedi ikvienam, kurš pilsētu izpēta kājām.

Georgia O'Keeffe Museum

Džordžijas O'Kīfes muzejs atspoguļo Pueblo atdzimšanas stila arhitektūru. Šis mākslas muzejs ir bezpeļņas organizācija, kas sastāv no vairākām vietām Santafē un Abikjū, Ņūmeksikā. Ja vēlaties veikt padziļinātus pētījumus, muzejam ir bibliotēka un arhīvs tās pētniecības centrā vēsturiskajā A.M. Bergere mājā. Tiem, kas interesējas par mākslinieces personīgo vidi, muzejs ietver arī Džordžijas O'Kīfes vēsturisko Abikjū māju un studiju. Es vienmēr esmu domājis, ka ēku zemes toņu krāsas lieliski atbilst Ņūmeksikas saules gaismai. Tā ir brīnišķīga vieta, kur pavadīt pēcpusdienu, aplūkojot, kā vietējā vide ietekmēja izstādītos darbus, īpaši, ja ņem vērā muzeja atrašanās vietu gan pilsētā, gan lauku ainavā.

De Vargas Street House

You might think this is just another historic residence, but the De Vargas Street House is often referred to as the Oldest House. Located in Santa Fe, New Mexico, the majority of the building is believed to date to the Spanish colonial period post-1610. It holds a place on both the National Register of Historic Places and the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties, with both listings occurring in 1968. If you look closely at the structure, you can see why it is so studied; one archaeological study concluded that sections of the walls are characteristic of Pueblo architecture and may be pre-Spanish in origin. I've noticed that the textures of these old walls make for a very interesting bank shot if you're playing a round here.

Beyond its materials, the building has a long history of leadership; it was established as the capitol building of Nuevo México in 1610. It continued to be New Mexico's seat of government until 1901. You can also pick out the Spanish Colonial Revival and Pueblo Revival styles of architecture used in its construction. I've noticed that the thick walls make it a great spot to escape the midday sun.

Located in Santa Fe, Vladem Contemporary is an art gallery that brings a distinct visual energy to the area.

This specific aesthetic choice helps the gallery stand out from its neighbors in a very noticeable way. The structure was designed by dnca architects, who handled the architectural planning for the site. Whether you are here for the art or the building itself, the exterior is a great place to start your visit. I usually find the street corners around here are the best spots for a quick rest and a good view of the facade. It is a great spot to stop and admire the lines of the building before heading inside.
