Explore a Foreign Culture Without Leaving the U.S.

Friday June 27, 2008
The wind-stripped landscape that greets you when entering the Pueblo of Acoma lays bare the rugged life of these American Indians since this federally recognized Native Indian Tribe began building adobe dwellings here in 1150 A.D. Take a tour of Sky City, built on a 367-foot-high mesa, and listen as a tribal member talks about the pueblo’s history while you walk the stony streets looking at centuries-old adobe dwellings. To experience a visit to Sky City visit Acoma Pueblo. If you'd rather just look at pictures of this Native American sky-high village visit Images of Acoma Pueblo
