Low Road or High Road to Taos? Chama?
From Santa Fe, which road to Taos? Which road is the Ranchos de Taos church on? I can only do one on my way to the Grand Canyon; would like the one with the best view. Any recommendations on a rout...

We've traveled the area for 20+ years. Don't miss the high road to Taos. The church in Truchas is a wonderful gem. That is where the Milagro Bean Field Wars was filmed years ago.
Chimayo is a real gem. Be sure to time you travel to eat at Rancho de Chimayo. It is our favorite restaurant in NM. Reservations are a must on weekends and holidays. We like to catch an early lunch or dinner. Everything on the menu is to die for.
Don't miss the Santuario de Chimayo. It is one of the holy healing places in the world. The El Potrero Trading Post next door is a don't miss. They sell some of the finest dried green and red chili in the world. They have both traditional sun dried and machine dried. Had the red this a.m. on fried eggs. Comes in several degrees of burn. They'll let you sample to pick.
Ortega's weaving shop is a great place to shop. I have a dress coat that turns heads whenever I wear it. Nice place mats, purses and rugs.
In season, there are numerous roadside stands selling fruit and traditional chili.
