#6: Bandelier National Monument, Santa Fe, NM

Bandelier

Rose-pink rock cliffs are, at first glance, just a backdrop to a spectacular Santa Fe, New Mexico, hiking area but with a closer look, visitors to Bandelier National Monument will notice something else: the ancient ruins of people's homes, carved right into the rock. Named for 19th-century anthropologist Adolph Bandelier, the cliff dwellings were the 12th-century home of Pueblo Indians who once ruled the area and whose descendants continue the culture to this day.

Yeah, I nearly gagged when I saw Stockyards was in "Dallas". No, it is in Fort Worth, which is a great city with a fabulous zoo, great downtown shopping and dining, wonderful museum of history and science. Dallas has a totally different vibe than Fort Worth. But both cities have something great to offer families. Disney needs to edit the site for accuracy.
