Founded in 1706 by Spanish Settlers, Old Town Albuquerque is a historical site in the city of Albuquerque. Built in a traditional Spanish colonial way, its quaint Plaza is anchored by the San Felipe de Neri Church. Today, the historic homes and buildings have been renovated into shops, art galleries, and cafes. You can stroll the district’s streets to discover stunning hidden patios and visit both the impressive Rattlesnake Museum and the history-laden Albuquerque Museum. Don't miss the Portal Market where local artisans sell handmade jewelry too. Join a food, historic, or ghost tour to dive into the city’s rich culture.

This museum provides an interesting history of balloons around the world, as well as awesome exhibits and artifacts. There is also a lot of information about the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. The gift shop is well-stocked as well. We spent a fun afternoon here and highly recommend a visit for both adults and kids.
