In my opinion, this is a hidden gem. I love their salsa. I usually get burritos but pretty much everything I've had is delicious.

It's a Las Cruces institution. La Posta kicks out solid food in a historic atmosphere. Basically, every Las Crucen has eaten here at some point.

Sightseeing

A short hike with beautiful views of the mountains and the valley. I took my son when he was just two and even though I had to carry him some of the way it was doable.

No signs...expect probably the cars lining the road. Don't be afraid to hop the fence. Not a demanding hike, but can get a little steep when getting on top of the mesa.

Try hiking up A Mountain. Be sure to take plenty of water because there is no shade on this hike.

Entertainment

If you are interested in independent movies, this is the coolest place to watch them. Creaky old theater that is just great. Go for a drink at Vintage Wines across the street.

Neighborhoods

Historic. You can kind of imagine what it was like when it was a bustling capital. Walk around the narrow streets and you will be amazed at how many little shops, cafes, and restaurants are hiding.

Conseils aux voyageurs

Se déplacer dans les environs

Pretty much have to have a vehicle or use Uber.

You need a vehicle. No real options, unless you want to ride a bicycle.
Coutumes et culture

Relax in the "land of enchantment"

In general the pace of life is slower. This is also known as the land of "tomorrow"...as in, "I'll get to it tomorrow".
Manières d'économiser

Eat Mexican food.

In general, if you are eating out, the Mexican food provides the most bang for your buck. There are places in town with bean burritos for just a couple bucks and you get free chips and salsa.
Que faut-il apporter ?

Pack layers of clothing.

It is not uncommon to have a 40 degree change in temperature from day to night.
