The Oldest House, De Vargas Street House, in Santa Fe, New Mexico - New Year's Travel Day 4 - 5/7

The Oldest House
       During New Year's holidays, my husband and I went on a road trip for 5 days. On January 3, after visiting Loretto Chapel, we went to De Vargas Street House, which is also called the Oldest House, in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It was an old adobe structure first built in 1646 and is one of the oldest buildings in the U.S. Actually, it was previously alleged to be oldest house in the U.S.

      It was a small adorable house. There were two red chilli ristras hung around the cute blue entrance door.

        It was free to enter and see inside the house, which is now a museum with a small gift shop.

      It was very interesting to see one of the oldest houses in the U.S. Then, we walked around Downtown Santa Fe. I'll write about it next time
