Tesuque Pueblo is one of the state's smallest pueblos, and exhibits a proud and rich heritage. It is located in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains 10 miles north of Santa Fe off US 84-285. A very tranquil place, it is situated around a large central plaza and is believed to have stood on this site since 1200 A.D. and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The entrance to the pueblo lies just south of Camel Rock, a fascinating natural sandstone formation that wind and rain have eroded into the shape of a camel. Pottery, paintings and sculpture are created here by many fine artists. Among many features are silverwork and traditional clothing which are made at the pueblo.

The Tesuque people are one of the most traditional of all New Mexico Pueblos in observing ceremonies and preserving culture. Today, more than 400 people live at the pueblo. They speak native Tewa, English and in many cases, Spanish. The Reservation occupies more than 17,000 acres, including Aspen Ranch and the Vigil Grant high in the Santa Fe National Forest.
