About Albuquerque.

Albuquerque is New Mexico's largest city and, some say, the entrance to main and northern New Mexico. Some of the city's tourist attractions are historical Old Town, Petroglyph National Monument, Sandia Peak Aerial Tramway (the world's longest single-span tramway), New Mexico Museum of Natural History and the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center. For 10 days each October the Kodak Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, the largest ballooning event worldwide, fills the sky with hundreds of hot air balloons.

Albuquerque properties are are {famous|well-known} for 200 year old adobe {homes|houses} that reside naturally alongside {contemporary|modern} {homes|houses}. {Maybe|Perhaps| Possibly} it's {because|s ince|due to the fact that} you can hit the ski slopes in the {morning|early morning} and tee off in the afternoon! {Maybe|Perhaps|Possibly} it's because in no other city of its size can you find more variety.

Albuquerque today is the result of {three|3} diverse cultures merging together: Native American, Anglo and Hispanic. It was in 1706 that twelve Spanish {families|households} {established|developed} a community by order of the colonial {governor|guv} Don Francisco Cuervo y Valdes. That {early|very early} community was called San Felipe de Alburquerque in honor of King Philip V and the Duke of Alburquerque. This history {has|has actually} been {preserved|protected|maintained} in Albuquerque's "Old Town". {Because|Since|Due to the fact that} it was {named|called} to {honor|recognize} the Duke of Alburquerque, it was at one time called the "Duke City". The first "r" {has|has actually} {also|likewise} been {eliminated|gotten rid of|removed} from the {current|present|existing} spelling.

{Eons|Ages} {before|prior to} the Spanish came there were the Pueblo Indians. Their rich culture {has|has actually} {influenced|affected} the {music|songs} ,art and {cuisine|food} of the {region|area} for over a hundred years.

The building of the railroad in the 1880's {transformed|changed} the {ambiance|atmosphere| setting} Albuquerque from a {slow|slow-moving} paced town into a {bustling|busy|dynamic} city full of traffic and trade. And with the {advent|introduction|development|arrival} of the automobile and Route} 66, Albuquerque saw {another|an additional} {economic|financial} spurt. {During|Throughout} {World War II|the Second World War}, America's military and nuclear development became an {important|essential|crucial| vital} factor in the {growth|development} of the city. Kirtland Air Force Base was opened for the {defense|protection} of Sandia National Laboratories. For many years, the {mission|objective|goal} of Sandia Laboratories was to {research|study} and {bring to|give|offer} development of advanced nuclear weaponry.

From the {original|initial} twelve {families|households} to {more|even more} than the half million, Albuquerque has today to become a crossroads for trade, {technology|innovation}, transportation and tourism. We cannots forget our roots, and we look forward with {anticipation|expectancy} to the years ahead.
