I’ve always been fascinated with the Taos Pueblo and its historical significance as the longest continuously inhabited pueblo in the the U.S at over 1,500 years. Those living on the property have no electricity or running water. The hornos , which are adobe beehive-shaped ovens, are used to this day for baking bread. Fall is definitely my favorite time of the year to visit!
