Visiting Silver City, NM


As suggested by its name, Silver City began as a mining town at the height of the prospecting boom in the 1800s and has survived a long Wild West history that hosted such notorious notables as Billy the Kid and "Dangerous Dan" Tucker. Evidence of its even earlier history can be seen at the nearby Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument, where ancient homes of the Mongollon Pueblo still stand. Hikers, cyclists and outdoors enthusiasts flock to explore the scenery of the Gila National Forest.

Traveler Reviews

Isaac's Bar & Grill

Jul 11, 2009

Over ambitious menu with Cisco foods. Not bad. If you need to eat, you could do worse. I would go there again in a pinch. more

Shevek & Mi

Jul 11, 2009

I stayed in Silver City for 3 nights. I ate every dinner at Shevek's. The best food I have had outside of Europe. After a long roadtrip, it was fabulous to find some decent food, no, make that fine...more

The Inn on Broadway

Jul 11, 2009

All the reviews (with the exception of the paranoid one) are right on target. Great accomodations and a fabulous breakfast. After a long road trip, this was a real delight. I will be back. more
