One of Santa Fe's most beloved holiday traditions, the Canyon Road
Farolito Walk, lights up the hearts and souls of thousands who promenade
this famous path on Christmas Eve.
Small, sand-filled, paper bags illuminated with votive candles line the historic neighborhood streets and adobe walls. Carolers gather around the farolitos (Spanish for paper lantern; diminutive of farol, lantern; from faro, lighthouse, lantern; from Latin pharus, from Pharus, Pharos) or luminarias (small bonfires), and sing for joy as they warm themselves, and our hearts, from the cold night. The Farolito Walk is free, and has become a celebrated tradition during this sacred season. Memories...Click on the following links to see images of the walk from
