Personal Overview:- Roswell is a very small town. Once you get off the free way, you will end up on the Main Street. This street is really a "main" hub of Roswell because everything is on there. Hehe..... Let's check out things you can do on this street.
Things To Do:
- Check out the International UFO Museum and Research Center on the Main Street, where you are able to see some documentary about Flying Saucer, Aliens, and other science- realted stuff.
- There are tons of gift shops on that street from the 1st to the 5th streets. Walk around and take some Alien's pictures, hehe....
- You may want to check out the UFO Festival. We could not do that because we did not go on a date that the festival is supposed to be on.
Restaurants:
- McDonalds on Main Street. It was designed like a Flying Saucer.
- Denny's for breakfast ;)

My Two Cents:- Santa Fe is smaller compared to Albuquerque. The cool thing about this city is their adobe style houses and departmental stores. I really enjoyed seeing those Southwestern buildings. It is a very artistic town.
Things To Do:
- Go to the Capitol House. It is very unique. When I was there, the house was closed due to it was Sunday. So if you want to go in there, make sure you go on weekdays.
- There's a small Visitor Information Center across the street from the Capitol. Check it out and grab a map to walk around. You will be amazed to see many places you can see within distance on foot.
- When we were there, it was Santa Fe's 400th anniversary. We got to see that special events that full of music performances, arts, food, etc.
Restaurants:
- Maria's - It was OK - not recommend ;)

My Two Cents:
- Albuquerque is pretty much a city. The traffic could be bad if you were driving during the busy time, especially when we were there, there were a lot of road constructions. Most of the boulevard names are based of Spanish.
Things To Do:
- Take a walking tours around the Old Town. There are a lot of things to see and do that range from museums, arts and galleries to shopping and dinning. It took us about 2-3 hours to walk around and see things that we want to see.
- Check out the Sandia Peak Tramway. It's the longest tramway in the world. The tramway takes about 15 minutes. The view on the top is amazing. Make sure you take a coat or jacket with you because it's really cold up there. Furthermore, make sure you make reservations at the restaurants there if you plan to eat there. There are two restaurants - one is at the base and the other one is at the top. They are pretty busy. If you don't have reservation, you have to wait. We ate at the top. The restaurant is called High Finance Restaurant and Tavern. Once the reservation is made, you can get a discount of $4 to get on the tramway when you arrive half hour earlier than the reservation time, which costs $17 for an adult. I personally think that the food was OK. I enjoyed our appetizer - chicken wings, which have sort of oriental flavor in them and they are very spicy. The meal was very little and pricy.
- Night clubs in Albuquerque is just like other cities. Cool dance clubs are on the 4th street downtown. Drive carefully because cops are everywhere on 4th street ;)
