Minigolf v meste Santa Fe: 9 jamiek, par 26

Táto hra končí v parku Footbridges Park v meste Santa Fe. Mapa je skutočné mesto a loptička sa kotúľa po jeho skutočných uliciach, pričom miestne atrakcie slúžia ako hranice pre jednotlivé jamky. Táto rýchla 9-jamková hra má celkovú dĺžku 3 míle, ktorú prejdete pešo. Skip tieto miesta veľmi dobre pozná a je miestny sprievodca, hoci väčšinu času trávi hľadaním omrviniek.

Loretto Chapel

Špicaté oblúky a strmé línie neogotického štýlu definujú vzhľad kaplnky Loretto. Táto budova, ktorá sa nachádza v meste Santa Fe, v Novom Mexiku, je kaplnka, ktorá odráža špecifické obdobie náboženskej architektúry. Hoci začala svoju históriu ako rímskokatolícky kostol, účel tohto priestoru sa časom zmenil. Dnes je to súkromne vlastnené múzeum a zároveň slúži ako svadobná kaplnka pre tých, ktorí navštevujú mesto. Zostáva významnou pamiatkou v regióne pre tých, ktorí sa zaujímajú o históriu náboženských budov v tejto oblasti. Môžete vidieť, ako prvky neogotického štýlu odlišujú túto budovu od iných stavieb v okolí, čím sa stáva ústredným bodom pre tých, ktorí skúmajú miestnu architektúru v meste Santa Fe.

Kit Carson Monument

Pozrite sa na vysoký, zúžený kameň Pamätníka Kit Carson. Táto stavba je obelisk, ktorý je významnou pamiatkou v Santa Fe. Počas prechádzky mestom si môžete medzi miestnymi pamiatkami všimnúť tento pamätník. Zistil som, že výška kameňa z neho robí užitočný referenčný bod pri navigácii v blízkych uliciach. Či už navštívite mesto kvôli jeho histórii alebo len prechádzate, je to výrazná súčasť fyzického usporiadania mesta, ktorú je ľahké spoznať z diaľky. Slúži ako jasný vertikálny ukazovateľ v oblasti, kde je architektúra často skôr horizontálna, čo z neho robí spoľahlivého sprievodcu pre každého, kto mesto skúma pešo.

Georgia O'Keeffe Museum

Múzeum Georgia O'Keeffe sa vyznačuje architektúrou v štýle Pueblo Revival. Toto umelecké múzeum je nezisková organizácia, ktorá zahŕňa viacero miest v Santa Fe a Abiquiu, v Novom Mexiku. Ak hľadáte rozsiahlejší výskum, múzeum zahŕňa knižnicu a archív v rámci svojho výskumného centra v historickom dome A.M. Bergere. Pre tých, ktorí sa zaujímajú o osobné prostredie umelkyne, múzeum zahŕňa aj historický dom a štúdio Georgia O'Keeffe v Abiquiu. Vždy som si myslel, že zemité tóny budov dokonale ladia s novomexickým slnečným svetlom. Je to nádherné miesto, kde môžete stráviť popoludnie a pozrieť sa, ako miestne okolie ovplyvnilo diela, ktoré sú tu vystavené, najmä ak vezmete do úvahy prítomnosť múzea v meste aj v vidieckom prostredí.

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.

Palace of the Governors

This palace is an adobe structure built in the Territorial Style of Pueblo architecture. You can find it on Palace Avenue in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It is a National Historic Landmark, a National Treasure, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. 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.
