Autumn at the top of the Sandia Mountains in Albuquerque, NM is not to be missed if you happen to visit at just the right time. Hope you're not afraid of heights. #CeliaLuzPhotography #autumn #Albuquerque #NewMexico #trees #landscape #nature #Hike #Sandias #fall #travel #places #seasons #BestHikesAroundtheWorld

Had a great morning taking the Sandia Peak Tramway from 6100’ to 10,600’. Got to watch a someone parasail up another 1000’ and will be sailing for 3 to 5 hours.
Evening View
This little cafe just north of Albuquerque in the artistic (and formerly hippie commune) village sports quirky Southwestern decor and delicious food. Next door, enjoy Arte de Placitas for locally-made art pieces and jewelry.

Ride the tram up to Sandia Park in Albuquerque, New Mexico to see some spectacular views. A major bonus if you do this around hot air balloon festival week and you will see balloons hovering over the city. However the line/queue to ride the tram from the base can be quite long.
