Get your kicks on Route 66, and your Southwestern Indian goods too, in western New Mexico’s Gallup.
The business center of the Navajo nation, Gallup is packed with trading posts that sell tribal rugs, pottery and silver-and-turquoise jewelry for less than half of Santa Fe’s prices.
Nostalgia fans, too, will love this vintage town, ablaze with neon signs and colorful hotels such as El Rancho, (pictured).
