The Lost Plaza of Chimayo

by Jon Katz

We stumbled across an old, mostly abandoned plaza near the town of Chimayo, where we are staying, and we spent some wonderful hours exploring the abandoned homes and buildings – several are still occupied. When we arrived, we found Juan, haltingly taking his daily walk around the plaza. It was haunting and beautiful, and I took some photos which I will be posting over the next few days. A haunted, mystical, evocative place. I would love to buy one of these old homes and restore it, if I had the money. Several other people are already doing that.
