  4. #Albuquerque was a Spanish colonial outpost in 1706. Named after a Spanish viceroy, the town grew on the banks of the Rio Grande as a vital stop on the old trade routes. Today, Old Town remains the historic heart of the city. Visitors can walk narrow brick paths, explore historic adobe buildings, and shop at vibrant local artisan markets. The city is a blend of Native American and Spanish history and heritage.

  9. Two books I won't be bringing to Paris for #SotM26: 2 volumes of "Guide du Patrimoine"

    AFAIK only five volumes of this series appeared. Although nicely produced and conceived the textual descriptions never achieved the detail, or precision, of Dehio or Pevsner (the latter very obviously inspired by the former).
