I have been to Matamoros and Nuevo Leon in Mexico and I thought what's the use of going to New Mexico? If you have seen one you have seen them all. But here's the catch Mexico is in Mexico and New Mexico is in the USA. So while taking my Board exams in America, our group opted to choose Albuquerque in New Mexico - it is just like hitting two birds with one stone - taking my licensure exam and seeing the city environs for the first time.
Indeed there is a difference. Mexico is the land of extremes ... it has dense rainforests in the south and east, sweeping deserts in the north, and deep canyons at the center. On the other hand, some portions of New Mexico are flat but are rich in pine forests and rugged mountains while other areas are devoid of any water bodies where even cacti struggle to survive.
There is just one place in Albuquerque that I will not forget. It is the Sandia Tramway. It is the longest aerial tram ride that towers more than 10 thousand feet in the Sandia Mountains. You can almost breathe the fresh mountain air and enjoy awe-inspiring postcard-pretty views while on top of the world.
