We’ve always known there’s something special about strolling through the shops of Taos—and now Travel + Leisure has named us America’s Best Small Shopping Town thanks to the incredible local businesses that make this community what it is. Here, shopping is never just about what you take home, but about the stories, traditions, and people you connect with along the way. Every piece of jewelry, every pot, every woven textile reflects the vision and skill of artists whose roots run deep in Taos. From Indigenous art to contemporary creations, it’s the dedication of our small business owners and creators that turns shopping into discovery. We’re proud to share this recognition with them and invite you to experience their one-of-a-kind shops for yourself.
