OLD SANTA FE - NEW MEXICO

French style church.

In Santa Fe city limits all homes must be made of adobe. The original adobe homes had thick solid walls of adobe; whereas, this house is a modern adobe house having only the outside wall covered in adobe. Almost all adobe homes have what appears to be a flat roof. The roofs are slightly slanted to dispell water.

Vines growing on the adobe and showing signs of fall with their leaves turning red.

The plaza park that is the center of Old Town.
