Cross of the Martyrs
NileGuide Expert Says:
This is a great walk to do from any of the downtown hotels; climb the stairs above town, just off the Paseo and Otero Streets, and walk back in time to the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, when local Native Americans group protested their mistreatment under the Spanish colonialists; twenty-one Franciscan friars were killed. For very little effort, you get spectacular views of downtown and the Round House, the peaks of the Sangre de Cristos, and the Jemez mountains.
