El Camino Real International Heritage Center
(ECRIHC) is one of New Mexico's newest State Monuments, dedicated in November 2005. The Center contains award winning exhibits, interpretive learning center, and artifacts presenting the history and heritage of El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro - the Royal Road to the Interior.Colonists from Mexico and Spain entered New Mexico from 1598
until about 1885 along El Camino Real. Many of the people living in
the Southwest today are decendents of these early settlers along the
trail, extending from Mexico City and the port city of Veracruz to
Santa Fe and beyond, a distance of over 1,500 miles. Today,
Interstate 25, from Las Cruces to Santa Fe, closely parallels the
route of El Camino Real through New Mexico.El Camino Real is our country's oldest, and longest continuously used highway, bringing European colonists to New Spain (New Mexico) beginning 22 years before the Mayflower. It has been designated a National Historic Trail.

a southern new mexico community is working against the clock-- trying to save a church that's been the heart of the community for centuries. san miguel church in soccoro is in danger of collapsing, and the community is trying to remodel it now. cristina rodda is joins us now to tell us what's being done to save this historic church, cristina? right now the san miguel church restoration is in a critical stage-- work crews are working to find out how much damage there is in the adobe walls. since san miguel is about 4--hundred years old-- it's a huge job but this work crew has some motivation. nat. nat. generations of san miguel church faithful-- are also faithful to the restoration of one of the country's oldest churches. i love this church this church is worth saving for the last four years i've come here and it seems fine now it comes down, that's not cool. we have lots of parishoners just here all in dirt, dust and trying to to cut into these walls to do the work that needs to be done to preserve this holy church. that speaks of a community of great faith. the nearby lemitar church-- like other adobe churches in the state collapsed. san miguel has not. in the city of socorro -- population about 8 thousand-- san miguel is the heart of the community. you see, many were baptized here, married here and their final services will be here too. there is no way this church is going down without all of us fighting for it. and that's why they're here-- for what is sure to be the just the beginning of a lot of months maybe even years of work-- to get the moisture out of the adobe walls so that they don't crumble. our hope is that we caught everything at a good time and we'll be able to do what we need to do to fix it and get back in here as quickly as we can. during previous restorations- concrete was used in the adobe walls and now it's that same concrete that is trapping the moisture. father andy pavlak says he would like to see this complete by 2015 when they celebrate their 400 hundredth anniversary as a faith community. back to you

SUMMARY
=======
New Mexico (Spanish: Nuevo México pronounced [ˈnweβo ˈmexiko], Navajo: Yootó Hahoodzo pronounced [jòːtxó xɑ̀xʷòːtsò]) is a state in the Southwestern region of the United States of America. It is one of the Mountain States and shares the Four Corners region with Utah, Colorado, and Arizona; its other neighboring states are Oklahoma to the northeast, Texas to the east-southeast, and the Mexican states of Chihuahua to the south and Sonora to the southwest. With a population around two million, New Mexico is the 36th-most populous state. With a total area of 121,590 sq mi (314,900 km2), it is the fifth-largest and sixth-least densely populated of the 50 states. Its capital and cultural center is Santa Fe, while its largest city is Albuquerque. Due to their geographic locations, northern and eastern New Mexico exhibit a colder, alpine climate, while western and southern New Mexico exhibit a warmer, arid climate.
The economy of New Mexico is dependent on oil drilling, mineral extraction, dryland farming, cattle ranching, lumber milling, and retail trade. As of 2016-2017, its total gross domestic product (GDP) was $95 billion with a GDP per capita of $45,465. New Mexico's status as a tax haven yields low to moderate personal income taxes on residents and military personnel, and gives tax credits and exemptions to favorable industries. Because of this, its film industry has grown and contributed $1.23 billion to its overall economy. Due to its large area and economic climate, New Mexico has a large U.S. military presence marked notably with the White Sands Missile Range. Various U.S. national security agencies base their research and testing arms in New Mexico such as the Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories. During the 1940s, Project Y of the Manhattan Project developed and built the country's first atomic bomb and nuclear test, Trinity.
Inhabited by Native Americans for thousands of years before European exploration, it was colonized by the Spanish in 1598 as part of the Imperial Spanish viceroyalty of New Spain. In 1563, it was named Nuevo México after the Aztec Valley of Mexico by Spanish settlers, more than 250 years before the establishment and naming of the present-day country of Mexico; thus, the present-day state of New Mexico was not named after the country today known as Mexico. After Mexican independence in 1824, New Mexico became a Mexican territory with considerable autonomy. This autonomy was threatened, however, by the centralizing tendencies of the Mexican government from the 1830s onward, with rising tensions eventually leading to the Revolt of 1837. At the same time, the region became more economically dependent on the United States. At the conclusion of the Mexican–American War in 1848, the United States annexed New Mexico as the U.S. New Mexico Territory. It was admitted to ...
