About Mesa Verde

Mesa Verde is the Spanish term for “green table” a name given to this area because of the large plateau that makes up the geography around the park. But Mesa Verde is much more than just a unique geographical feature, it is a spectacular glimpse into the lives of the Ancestral Pueblo nation who called this place home for nearly 700 years.

Mesa Verde is both a US National Park and a UNESCO World Heritage site which occupies some 80 plus square miles near the Four Corners area in southwest Colorado. One of the most popular features of the park are the ruins of stone-built homes which the Pueblo people constructed within caves and under outcroppings of the canyon walls in the area. The cliff dwellings here at Mesa Verde are a spectacular site to see, and are said to be the largest cliff dwelling in North America.
