The Incredible Lightness of Taos
By Bruce Burnett

"For art to exist," wrote Nietzsche, "for any sort of aesthetic activity or perception to exist, a certain physiological precondition is indispensable: intoxication."

The famous view of Taos beneath sacred Taos Mountain as you come out of The Rio Grande Gorge, headed north. This is a favorite spot for photographers.
Taos Lies Ahead
There is, now, one shuttle service that connects Taos, New Mexico and Albuquerque Sunport. That airport shuttle service is Twin Hearts Express & Transportation. Faust's Transportation & Tours no longer offers Albuquerque to Taos airport shuttle service. Here's some information about Twin Hearts.

By taking the airport shuttle you will be greeted with interesting scenery and will feel yourself surrounded by the quaint, earthy, relaxing life-style of Northern New Mexico. The airport shuttle takes you north on highways near the Rio Grande River through, Cochiti, Santa Fe, Espanola.

Soon after you pass Espanola and the Santa Clara Pueblo's casino,  you reach Velarde and pass into The Rio Grande Gorge where you travel the winding two-lane road beside the Rio Grande River. After some time in the gorge passing through towns like Rinconada, Embudo, Dixon and Pilar, the highway rises out of the gorge and you are greeted by the marvelous site of Taos town above the gorge with sacred Taos Mountain in the distance.
