View Of Alcove House At Bandelier National Monument

About a mile upstream from Bandelier National Monument Visitor Center, and 140 feet above the canyon floor, is a natural-eroded alcove about 65 feet wide called Alcove House. Visitors can reach it by climbing four long wooden ladders and a series of narrow stone stairs. Alcove House was a place of habitation for Ancestral Pueblo people. They were part of the community of people who also lived in the talus houses and the large village of Tyuonyi. Alcove House was two stories high and had 23 rooms, a kiva and turkey pens. Courtesy/NPS
