A couple of photos have been posted on the gathering thread - I'll add some, too, focused however on only two buildings: a secular and a church.
Since the PDiddles had stayed there and thus know how beautiful it was .... no, not the cathedral but the La Fonda Hotel:
Quote:La Fonda is a Santa Fe landmark, just steps away from history and art museums, a variety of galleries and shops, historic churches and, of course, the Plaza. The inn's pueblo-style architecture features thick wood beams, latilla ceilings and carved corbels. Special touches such as hand-crafted chandeliers, tin and copper lighting fixtures and colorful tiles add character and charm. Beautiful hand-carved and hand-painted furniture and displays by local artists create a rich ambience. La Fonda has always been a local gathering spot and a hub of activity. World War II journalist Ernie Pyle wrote, "You could go there any time of day and see a few artists in the barÂ…a goateed gentleman from Austria or a maharajah from India or a New York brokerÂ… You never met anyone anywhere except at La Fonda."
