Taos Unveils Unique 2010 Travel Campaign

Travellers invited to escape modern day stresses and "Return to Sacred Places"

The Town of Taos, New Mexico, has announced its 2010 tourism theme: Escape the Modern Day. Rejuvenate in Taos. Return to Sacred Places, which encourages people, longing to rejuvenate their lives, to escape the stresses of the modern day and make a journey of self discovery.

Travel industry research is showing that people want to de-stress, reconnect relationships, stay closer to home, spend less and have experiential vacations in 2010.

Taos is naturally about these things, and the 2010 Return to Sacred Places campaign highlights how visitors may experience them while in Taos.

You don’t need a map to find sacred places in Taos. They’re everywhere … on well-travelled roads to the historic Taos Pueblo (pictured), along a winding alley to an art gallery, in a colorful shrine tucked into an adobe wall, and in the sound of the river as it winds down a mountain canyon.

“Everyone loves getting away for a vacation - especially when it involves rest, relaxation and rejuvenation,” said Taos Public Relations Director Cathy Connelly.

“We’re encouraging people to take a truly one-of-a-kind vacation this year - one where they connect with what is important to them.

"Taos, New Mexico provides something for everyone in a low-key, non-urban, relaxing and rejuvenating, awe-inspiring setting.”


Taos is the result of centuries of history and a fusion of diverse cultures that create a unique town full of unforgettable places - its treasured stories, personal observations, and literal “places” to escape the modern day can be found at www.TaosSacredPlaces.com.

Travellers can find the latest lodging deals and plan their vacation online at www.taosvacationguide.com.

The town also invites travellers to stay connected to their journey on its Facebook page.

“Taos is honouring its sacred places - ancient and new, man-made and natural, inner and outdoor,” said Taos Mayor Darren Cordova.

“In 2010, we invite people to discover all Taos’ special offerings - our traditions, values, lores and legends.”
