On a high-desert morning the plaza hums with footfall and sunlight sharpens adobe edges into hard relief. Your guide threads you through Kit Carson Road and narrow alleyways where paint-splashed doors open onto studios and storefronts; conversation spills from gallery thresholds, and the wind carries the scent of roasted chiles and cocoa.
