Taos.
Taos is the third leg of the New Mexico boutique triangle (Santa Fe, Albuquerque, Taos). The independents are deeply specific: Mabel Dodge Luhan House (where D.H. Lawrence stayed), El Monte Sagrado (a sacred-circle eco-resort), Taos Inn (the historic gathering spot, 1936), Hacienda del Sol (a 1804 adobe B&B). Adobe vernacular runs every page.
