    Deep in the heart of the " Land of Enchantment" (magic) lies Taos New Mexico. Soul of the southwest.
    Poets, artists, musicians, mystics, Mexicans, Spanairds, cowboys Indians and everyone else you can possibly think of occupy this small area in the backcountry of New Mexico.
    "Land of Enchantment" is the only place in America that is not like every other place in America.

      We have experienced ZERO issues with our slides. Fleetwood uses the hydraulic slide systems in the Excursion and not the metal rail system by Lippert. The Rail slide mechanisms have been nothing but trouble for us in previous RV's.

      La Chiripada Winery is right down the road in Dixon and is also worth the trip! Lovely people, lovely wine, lovely location! There are plenty of good videos and articles about Taos proper, earthships and the ski valley. Most visitors want to see more and know more about what the locals do and the out-of-the-way places they might miss. I think it's a great video and I am sure there will be a new one that will be more to your liking. You cannot cover all the great things around here in one little "short"! Lighten up and maybe produce one with your own point of view, Pavel Lukes!

    This video was disappointing. Not only did you miss a shitload of great spots in Taos, none of the spots you mentioned were actually in Taos (except maybe the chef's house where you learned to cook seafood-in a landlocked state). The winery is in Velarde, not Taos and everything else is outside of town. There's a plethora of amazing hidden gems, eateries and cool things to check out within the town limits. A shame none of them got mentioned.
