Taurus season is here! From April 19 to May 20, the sun is in this earth sign. Tauruses appreciate the finer things in life, and they value high-quality items and experiences. According to Astro Poets, those born under the sign of the bull tend to be stubborn, but they are also one of the most self-reliant and dependable signs. 

Albuquerque can offer a relaxing, luxurious experience that's perfect for a Taurus. Here’s a Taurus’ guide to Albuquerque.

What to Do

Riding Horses at The Stables at Hyatt Regency Tamaya

A Taurus will get grounded with a guided horseback ride with The Stables at Tamaya. Explore the Pueblo backcountry on the back of a horse rescued by the Tamaya Horse Rehabilitation Program. Another tour Tauruses will love is at Eldora Chocolate. Get an inside look at how Eldora produces award-winning chocolate right here in Albuquerque.

For a fancy night out, see a show with Opera Southwest. The season runs through the winter and spring at the National Hispanic Cultural Center. Alternatively, book a table at Tablao Flamenco for a culturally-rich performance. Watch world-class flamenco dancers while you dine on a delicious meal cooked by the chef at Hotel Albuquerque.

Where to Eat

A Taurus will love the elevated dining experience at Farm & Table. The menu changes regularly depending on what is currently in season. In addition, much of the produce is grown at the on-site farm, and they source 80% of their menu from local farmers. Another place to indulge is Gobble This, an intimate, unique Salvadorian dining experience in Old Town. Tell the chef what you like, and then enjoy a one-of-a-kind meal built around your preferences. For elevated charcuterie, be sure to visit Wolf ‘n’ Swallow. And coffee lovers will enjoy sipping on a luxury latte brewed at Kashmir Coffee Lounge.

With an almost 400-year-old wine industry in the state, Albuquerque is home to many elevated wineries. Stop at Gruet Winery’s tasting room to sip on some bubbly wines in a cozy atmosphere. Or take a Taurus to VARA Winery & Distillery for delicious Spanish-inspired wines in a setting that offers stunning views.

Start your day with a delicious breakfast and then enjoy a facial or a massage, or try out a reiki session. Los Poblanos Historic Inn & Organic Farm is another relaxing spot to experience a tranquil retreat amidst the bustle of the city. Walk among the fragrant lavender fields, dine at the award-winning on-site restaurant Campo and take a yoga class inside the wellness yurt.
