Las Cruces is a city in New Mexico, on the edge of the Chihuahuan Desert. The city is famous for being the temporary home of legends such as Billy the Kid and the Mexican general Pancho Villa and the area was known for being a haven for miners in the days of old. Nowadays Las Cruces is on the map thanks to its delicious and varied New Mexican food as well as its charming mix of southwestern hospitality, history, and culture.
