Does New Mexico have any cool national parks that I could visit while I’m down there? I’m going to visit my brother but I want to see the nature in New Mexico as well as the cities.
: White Sands National Park and Carlsbad Caverns National Park.
Carlsbad Caverns is located in southern New Mexico. The park has over 100 caves with lots of cool formations, as well as deep sea ledges, desert wildlife, and flowering cactus that you’ll come across while exploring the park.
White Sands is also located in southern New Mexico, but this park offers a completely different experience. The park is composed of miles of pure white sand dunes. If the site looks familiar, you may have seen it in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope or one of the other feature films that has been shot there.
