Taos, New Mexico: San Francisco de Asis Church

The roads to and from Taos to Santa Fe are said to essentially end in the same place - the well-known San Francisco de Asis Church. It is located where the Low Road and the High Road more or less meet (it's a couple of blocks south of the intersection on Route 68).

This adobe structure dates back to the 1700s, and is considered one of the most beautiful buildings of its type in the country. No wonder it is a National Landmark.

One tip - the church is set back from the road a bit, so look for a parking lot on the east side of the road. The front entrance is on the other side of the building. And bring a camera.
