Mesa Verde is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and contains numerous remains of dwellings used by the Anasazi people (or their forbearers). The cliff dwellings are a remarkable testament to the tenacity, ingenuity and patience of these early Americans. Thanks for looking.

Re: The Cliff Palace
I like the first one, it shows where it all fits in the landscape, the others are interesting too of course.

Re: The Cliff Palace
Mesa Verde is an inspirational place, but if you were to visit the place I recommend not going there in the summertime. The high desert can still get pretty warm. I hope to come back to visit the park again in the future. There are lots of hiking opportunites and more ruins to explore. And Chaca Canyon isn't that far away - another great place to visit (I wish we had time to stop by that great site as well). Thank you for the comments.
