Focus on Museum Hill

Santa Fe New Mexico Living

This blog focuses on the pleasures and wonder of living in Santa Fe, New Mexico and the beauty of Santa Fe’s various neighborhoods.  Every week I’ll feature something that is really special about living in Santa Fe and focus on one of the neighborhoods here.  If you are from out of town – who knows, maybe you’ll visit, fall in love with Santa Fe and want to move here!  If you already live here, maybe you’ll discover something new about living in Santa Fe.  Come join me as we explore Santa Fe together.

Santa Fe New Mexico Living– Focus on Museum Hill

Santa Fe has four world class museums located on Camino Lejo on the southeast side of town in an area called Museum Hill.  If you limit your museum touring in Santa Fe to the cultural riches around the Plaza, you’ll be depriving yourself of a chance to view some wonderful art as well as magnificent views of the mountains.  Travel between Museum Hill and the Plaza is simple and convenient. Take the “M” line operated by Santa Fe Trails, which runs 7 seven days a week and costs adults $1 each way.  Departures start from the Downtown Transit Center on Sheridan Street (one block off the Plaza) for a short 18-minute ride.  Click here to see a map of the route.  Call 505 955-2001 for the most current information about schedules and fares.  You can spend endless hours exploring the wide variety of art in these collections.
