Taos Pueblo
a 1,000-year-old adobe village and UNESCO World Heritage Site
Taos Pueblo is one of the places Roamward flags on the The High Road to Taos because it gives the drive its texture: a 1,000-year-old adobe village and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Use it as a planned pull-over instead of letting the route become a blur between towns.
