Sky City Cultural Center & Haak'u Museum, Pueblo of Acoma

April 1, 2018: Really enjoyed the museum and great selection of native American jewelry which I purchased. The Acoma Pueblo was fascinating and so worth the trip. About 60 miles west of Albuquerque but a beautiful drive with lots of natural beauty. A must see if you're in the area.

This was an amazing experience of art, architecture, views and culture that I highly recommend when visiting New Mexico. When you walked through the doors (beautiful large wooden doors) you immediately feel the presence of the culture you’re about to be immersed into. I was disappointed that the Sky City tour was on hold because of Covid, but I respect the tribe leaders taking extra precautions for the safety of those living in the village. They do offer affordable virtual tours available in the museum so you can get a glimpse of the in-person tour. Tables are set up where you can purchase original drawings, pottery and jewelry. I viewed a live dance performance during my visit and it gave me goosebumps. Watching the dancers on an reservation with the village looking down on you is an experience to have once in your lifetime.
