Santa Fe means “holy faith” and in 1610 the first church was built on this site and replaced by a larger one in 1630, which was then destroyed following the Pueblo Revolt of 1680. There are 20 bronze plaques on the church doors that depict the history of NM since 1539.

Sena Plaza

Wonderful destination of Santa Fe. It is one of the oldest and most authentic buildings in all of the city.

San Miguel Chapel

The Mission was built between 1610 and 1628, the Church was partially destroyed during the 1680 Revolt and rebuilt in 1710 with numerous restorations over the years. Inside beam dates 1710, altar screen and area show oldest portions and next door is the early St. Michael’s College.

Thomas Gallegos enhanced our trip to Santa Fe by a thousand percent. It was a first time visit for one of us and the rest hadn't been to the City in decades. We did the tour about 1 hour after arriving in the city and that was the way to do it. Tom was kind, fun and informative. He provided an outstanding review of the City's history and ethos. We had a greater respect for the City and its culture which we could have been oblivious to without Tom. You know you're doing something right when random people stop you on the street and tell you that you have the best tour guide in town and call him by name. One restaurateur even asked us to stop so he could make a quick dish for us to sample because he likes Thomas so much. It was delicious by the way. Thomas helped us with places to shop, eat, and visit. A MUST DO.
