The pueblo of Santo Domingo is located on the east bank of the Rio Grande River, two and a half miles west of Thornton, N. M., on the Santa Fe. The streets, four in number, three running at right angles to the river, are very broad and extremely picturesque. Here and there are the native ovens, piles of firewood, and the rude kilns for firing pottery. In one of the streets rises the great circular wall of the Estufa, with its ladder beams projecting far above the tops of the surrounding houses. There are many interesting features in this quaint old town, among them an old Spanish mission church in a fair state of preservation. Fred Harvey |
