This Madrid is not Madrid. I encountered the desert town of Madrid. Didn't I mention this small town in my last travel photography "Desert Dust - Cycling around Santa Fe"? This small town is called Madrid, not the famous Madrid in Spain. Madrid is near Santa Fe, and if you have a lot of time and don’t know where to go, you can go there. Madrid is small to only one small street, walking all the way, are all characteristic small shops, galleries, studios, bars and restaurants, and a small museum (P2). The locals call Madrid a ghost town, but I call it the back garden of Santa Fe art galleries. There are really no people, not many locals, let alone compatriots. But the atmosphere of hippie and literature can be seen everywhere. We also chatted with an old cowboy. We sat in the bar with a little more people and drank a special drink (P1, P5, P19). The bar is very popular. There is an open room bar specializing in serving outdoor customers. The exterior walls are full of interesting things, and several of the paintings directly created in old newspapers are very special. Java Junction - Madrid NM Detailed address: Madrid, NM.
