Taos Pueblo

This was a great experience! There are tours about every half hour or you can do a self-guided tour. If you do that to a plan on a gratuity as the tour is free. If you are planning to shop from the community make sure to bring both cash as some places do not take card. Tickets to enter were 25 dollars each but understand that there's money goes to supporting the community that lives within these pueblos. There are dogs that roam the area you should not pet them out of respect to the community. Also it is advised not to take pictures inside the church. And always ask if taking pictures of any community members before doing so. The creek that runs through the community is a water source so be respectful about any trash or touching it. There are people to help with parking and they will kind of direct you in what areas you should park as you enter.

Taos the Pueblo a village being resided since last 1000 of year an unesco world heritage site. Must visit place if in Taos . Entire village does not have electricity and work on propane. The house is build in such a traditional way which they explained us. .multiple store serving food and handcrafted stuff that’s how we manage to visit the houses from inside. People inside are very friendly and welcoming . Some store accept only cash specially the cafe inside so if planning to buy something carry some cash .

Thank you so much to the residents of Taos Pueblo for allowing us to visit your home. There is so much history here. This was my favorite stop while staying in Taos. The residents and artisans were so welcoming. It was fascinating to hear about their history and how they traded with other tribes. It was so beautiful. We will be back next time we are in town. I got some beautiful jewlery and artwork.

Came to New Mexico and Taos Pueblo was the apex of this trip. We came and observed the Christmas Day ceremony, for anybody interested in observing this we highly recommend it, however it is important to note you are there to be present not ask questions or take pictures etc. It snowed and was cold but we came prepared with layers and blankets. The next day we came back to actually get the guided tour and buy from the local vendors there. Both of which were eye opening 1) because you learn about the people and 2) because the shops are inside people's homes and you get to speak with folks. We purchased pottery, shirts, food, etc. there is also plenty of jewelry to purchase as well as blankets. Come and see this beautiful place but remember your manners, you're inside peoples home and community. They don't owe you anything so be respectful at all times

I always wanted to visit an authentic Pueblo. It was a great experience. Met many locals, tasted fried bread for the first time and must say it was a tasty, good authentic dish. Learned tons on the local Culture. Definitely recommend.

Such a cool experience.. seeing the way of life from years gone by. The adobe homes, the original church, the graveyard, the river that supplies water, and the locals selling all kinds of goods. Definitely recommend the guided tour to help add facts and history. 25$ fee sounds steep.. but well worth it in support of the local people's.

As far as I am aware, this is the only surviving Pueblo with its historical buildings still intact from hundreds of years ago. Ever visited Pueblo ruins and winner what it looked like before? Yeah that's Taos Pueblo. Taos Pueblo is also important as it's where the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 was planned and started. Parking is easy. They welcome visitors. It is $25 per person for anyone ages 11+. Worth it though. Lots of history here. They let you explore on your own within some confines setup (primarily no entering buildings or exploring side streets too much). But the main square / courtyard is open. Some shops are open. The main church is open. The Pueblo is actively lived in. I did explore down some side streets up to the barrier / sign that says not to go past. Was cool to see. Although I did get yelled at by an overly aggressive puebloan that I wasn't supposed to be there, despite me being 10-15 feet behind the barrier. But hey, I was respectful of her wishes and left. Overall, it is amazing that we can come in and see something like this and props to the Pueblo leaders for preserving history and keeping it largely open to the public so we can learn more about their history. Thank you.

Omg! It's so amazing! I love going to ancient ruins. To see one that is still being used and looks pretty much like it did originally is just amazing. There are shops in the town and a couple of eateries. It isn't clear, but you are supposed to register at the visitor center, and it is a $25 fee to go into the town. There is a parking area outside the town and you walk in.
