Overview

Built by the Spanish conquerors in the 1600s, this building is now on the list of American Treasures and is a Registered National Historic Landmark. Inside is housed the most extensive museum collection spanning the history of Santa Fe and the Southwest. Native Americans ply their arts and crafts outside the building facing the central Plaza just as they have for over 400 years. Jewelry, pottery, kachinas and more are spread out on blankets for you to admire and purchase. This is wholesale shopping at its best, so be sure to check it out.

It get crowded..but everyone is so nice. They have some really original art work and jewlery there. I bought a torquiose bracelet and it is beautiful. The craftmanship is excellent. I would go back and shop some more. Its a great place to take the entire family. I may be going for spring break!!
