Description

The University of New Mexico, founded in 1889 to increase the influence of the town after the arrival of the railway, provides Albuquerque with a vibrant cultural and intellectual feel. The campus is dotted with green spaces, fountains, benches and sculptures, while its architecture recalls the history of New Mexico with its neo-Pueblo, adobe style - Hodgin Hall and the Alumni memorial are particularly good examples. The Maxwell Museum of Anthropology houses a fine collection of pottery.
