2025 Albuquerque Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Does anyone remembers the HBO series “Breaking Bad”? well I did a tour of Albuquerque New Mexico and visited the famous hotdog restaurant called “dog house” were Jesse (One of the main characters) purchased a gun… this of course is the series storyline “not real”… there is also the car wash that Walter White purchased and many other iconic locations that were used for filming.. they have many tours that will highlight everything seen in the film or like I did, you can create your own tour. Albuquerque New Mexico is a wonderful city onto its own with lots of museums and shops. #travel #wanderlust #travelling #traveller #travelphotography #instatravel #adventure #journey #travelgram #travelpassion #travellifestyle #myjourney #wonderlust #trip #ilovetravel #camping #traveling #traveladdicted #travelgoals #traveljournal #igtravel #traveladdict #travelpics #bestvacations #travelphotos #traveler #tourist #travelblog #tourism #hiking

New Mexico. One might not have the slightest of idea what exactly is I'm there aside from stretches of dry and arid deserts. You'd be surprised as I was discovering a rich history and a colorful culture. To start, Old Town is actually Albuquerque's first an oldest town in Albuquerque established in the early 1700s. Built in the colonial Spanish Pueblo style and layout, Old Town creates a labyrinth of narrow streets which houses the town's treasurethrowves of gastronomic riches preserved and passed on to this generation to be served in tables of century old adobe houses and restaurants. These streets also extend their legacy to more than just food as these streets provide home to tiny artisan shops selling jewelry, rugs and pottery. And a is common to the Spanish building tradition, everything converges to a town plaza and a church where everyone gathers. #fallingforfall

Mushroom Jun's America Travel USA, New Mexico If you ask me where the most interesting B&B on Route 66, then New Mexico is definitely the first one. In Albuquerque, the largest city in New Mexico, I accidentally lived in the 20th century train station guest house. The owner of the homestay, Jerry, has a common hobby - renovating the old house, in which the old buildings were refurbished, so the railway station was built in 1902. The guest house was turned into what they are now: a total of two floors, a total of six rooms, Jerry's wedding dress at the door, you can cook for yourself, or even open the carcass, a single bad, can not take a bath. Only one guest on the day of check-in, Jerry left the key and left. Every room likes it. Which one is better? Bed & Name: Railroad Inn Address: Albuquerque

Embark on a transformative hike in "Wild," resonating with the spirit of self-discovery.

In the world of indulgent hotel experiences, scales often find themselves in an ironic role. A hotel with exceptional cuisine has little use for them, acknowledging the value of enjoying life's pleasures. If given the choice, who wouldn't prefer culinary delights over calorie counts? As hotels continue to redefine luxury, the absence of scales in an environment of culinary wonder is a testament to a philosophy that embraces the art of savoring life.

Embarking on life's journey, I've amassed an album of remarkable moments: From diving in Dubai's azure waters to chasing waves in Bali's embrace. From Disneyland Paris to skiing the majestic Alps, memories I'll forever embrace. The dazzle of Las Vegas and the thrill of horseback riding in Kenya. From ballooning in ethereal skies to sleigh rides and northern lights in Lapland. A million-dollar milestone crossed, entwined with giraffes and bears. I leapt into cenotes, tasted Parisian romance, and roared through Kenya's wilds. Boating Bled's tranquil lake and Seychelles' exclusive shores. Helicoptered over Dubai's Palm and cycled Italy's mountain trails. An abandoned lighthouse scaled, Coldplay's rhythm in my heart. Central Park's ice, Maldives' marine wonders, and Jordan's desert sunsets. Lisbon's ride and NYC's breathtaking view from the 106th floor. Thailand's massage, Portugal's port, and dawn over Dubai's highest pool. A tapestry of experiences woven into my existence, these moments form the essence of a life well-lived. What's your cherished must-do, a gem for the annals of your journey?
