    Madrid is a funky little town in New Mexico that is fun to visit and stroll around the town and visit the different studios. We only spent an hour and a half there, but thoroughly enjoyed the drive there and the different stores we visited.

    A unique shop with an owner who still mines for Cerillos turquoise nearby. Mostly jewelry, pueblo art, and fetishes, but other items as well. They were very friendly and shared about the town of Madrid, how they mine the turquoise, etc.

    The museum was small, but informative and genuine. There were lots of different items and the woman who guided us was good. It was a surprise to hear that Walt Disney visited the town and modeled the Christmas display in Disneyland after Madrid!

    Loved this charming small theatre that has been lovingly restored. A perfect venue to see the recent Steampunk Cabaret Show.

    This little shop is really cool and has some very unique jewelry made from watches. The owner was friendly and full of energy and showed a lot of passion for her work! Great shop!

    I had intended just to pop in while walking around town. But when I saw the work that was being produced, I was really taken back by the skill with which mental is transformed into art. I had a chance to visit briefly with the artist and discuss how he got his "ten Thousand hours" of perfecting his skill. I did not buy anything, out of my price range, but it is the real thing and and piece I saw would be a valuable addition to anyones collection of fine art .

    Beautiful work and the proprietor’s creative photo techniques are very artistic. He is very knowledgeable and has a wide variety of art and NM jewelry. I picked up a hummingbird metal wall sculpture that I love.

    This is a quaint little shop on the south end of Madrid with outstanding house made chocolates. The blending of New Mexico chilis with dark, milk and white chocolates goes to another level. The mixtures of types of chocolates, fruits and chilis is a great new experience.
    The young lady who assisted us was delightful and helpful.

    I have been learning about meditation since I visited Bangkok over the Summer. I had about a week off and wanted to attend a retreat to take my practice to a deeper level. I found the Samadhi Hermitage on a website dedicated to finding meditation retreats. The Samadhi Hermitage is nestled in beautiful Madrid, New Mexico. Madrid has about 500 people, according to a resident there. The Samadhi Hermitage offers two "caves" for a personal meditation retreat. One cave is for a longer term stay, and the other (where I stayed called the Samadhi Cave) is for shorter term stays. The person who runs the hermitage is a master meditator, having completed multiple years in caves and studied for decades in India. I was able to completely absorb into my meditation and into the study of the meditation technique I was using. I stayed three days and meditated in complete silence interrupted only by my one daily meal, a coffee break, sleep, listening to the discourses, using the restroom and some discussions with the meditation master there. I was offered and accepted discourses made available by the meditation master onsite as well he was willing to discuss my goals and give me some ideals for techniques. The cave is on a donation basis and you can pay what you like. The mountains are beautiful that surround and the place is filled with amazing books related to meditation, Eastern spirituality and the people who practice that. I think it could also be amazing if you just wanted to drop in and get some guidance on meditation, life or meet a great asset (in the meditation master residing there). If you go or want to go and have any questions, please ask and I will try and get to them.
