About Plaza Blanca
Made famous by local artists Georgia O'Keeffe, these landscapes
in a valley of the Rio Chama hills near the village of Abiquiu,
when she made a series of paintings about the places she called
"The White Place", or in Spanish "Plaza Blanca", this area of
New Mexico is now on the grounds of the Dar Al Islam education
center and mosque.
Set on private land the center welcomes visitors
but does not provide access to the plaza. Sadly for
those who wish to view the awe inspiring landscapes which may be known
from O'Keeffe's painting or the many motion pictures which have
used it as a backdrop this is no longer possible.
There is NO PUBLIC ACCESS to Plaza Blanca as
of Aug 2022.
