Romance in the Land of Enchantment
Description:
Santa Fe's Old World charm, small scale, walkable downtown, and foreign feel make it a town built for romance. A stroll around the Plaza area in historic downtown is a good start to discovering the nooks and crannies that make up the old city. Santa Fe is a food lover's town so there are any number of places for a romantic meal --a corner table at La Boca for tapas, an outdoor table in the garden at La Casa Sena for modern southwestern and American fare, the linen and hushed tones at Geronimo or The Compound on Canyon Road for contemporary cuisine, or the lively scene at Coyote Cantina for Latin flavors and fun are just a few of the several hundred restaurant choices. A walk high in the aspens in the nearby Rocky Mountains, a summer performance at the Santa Fe Opera, dancing at any number of Santa Fe's night spots, looking for art during a weekend gallery crawl, a soak in an outdoor mountain tub at Ten Thousand Waves, a full body treatment at any of the city's many spas, or simply sitting on the Plaza under a faultless blue sky are all couple-friendly activities.
