Albuquerque sits in a high desert basin along the Rio Grande, where the Sandia Mountains catch pink light at sunset in a glow locals call the watermelon effect. Best known for its role in the early days of the American road trip along Route 66, the city blends Pueblo, Spanish, and frontier history into a distinct New Mexican character. Chile-laced kitchens fill the city's restaurants, while adobe-style hotels offer a comfortable base for exploring it all.
