The Northern Rio Grande area is unique in the country as it has its own special history as well as a distinct course of occupation not just from the rest of the Southwest, but the rest of the nation. After all, the history of this area preceded the forming and foundation of the country, and even has its own revolution noted in history – the Pueblo Revolt which took place in 1680. It is this enthralling history that the Northern Rio Grande National Heritage Center seeks to protect and preserve. When visiting this site, guests can explore the ruins of previous communities, enjoy recreational activities, and even visit studios. There are also works by local artists in the community which can be explored in this vast area of national heritage.
