Pueblo Acoma - Sky City
This place is amazing. This is the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in North America. The Pueblo Acoma people have lived on top this mesa for over 1200 years. I visited this place several times, there is no electricity, no running water and people still live there. This place is more commonly know as Sky City (a casino bearing the same name is nearby) It is located about 60 miles west of Albuquerque, New Mexico. (Yes, this is in the United States)
The Acoma people originally went up to the top of the mesa to hide from an enemy tribe, the Navajo. There is also an old church up there with many rainbows are painted on the walls. (photographs of the church are prohibited)
This place is open to tourists and I highly recommend it.
