Mural paintings, a pump track and pop surrealist art
The Coronado Historic Site is 9 miles away and preserves the area where Vásquez de Coronado entered the Rio Grande valley in 1540. He was searching for the fabled Seven Cities of Gold, but instead, he found 12 villages of Tiwa-speaking native farmers. Mural paintings - some of the best examples of Pre-Columbian art - were uncovered by archaeologists in a ceremonial chamber here and are on view at the Visitor’s Center. Closer to home, the Stranger Factory houses more modern art.
