Abstract
- A touch of divinity comes dirt-cheap at El Santuario de Chimayo, a 19th-century adobe church in the town of Chimayo, where the earth is believed to have curative powers. Among the multistory adobe structures, Native American craftsmen sell glittering pots shaped from local mica-rich clay, white women cook flatbread in huge, beehive-shaped ovens. Archaeological sites are more densely concentrated in Bandelier National Monument than anywhere else in the nation and there's no shortage of visitors either.
