Things to do in Albuquerque
Albuquerque is New Mexico’s largest city, spread along the Rio Grande beneath the granite face of the Sandia Mountains. Science and defense shape its economy: Sandia National Laboratories and the Air Force Research Laboratory operate on Kirtland Air Force Base, and a cluster of aerospace, optics and laser companies has grown up around them. The University of New Mexico and its hospital, a semiconductor plant in neighboring Rio Rancho and major film and television studios add to the mix, and the city’s high desert light and landscapes have made it a frequent filming location.
