The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta

One of the most captivating sights is looking at a hot air balloon slowly ascending up to a clear blue sky, defying the laws of gravity and showing all of its colors in full-bright grandeur!

You would appreciate it, right?

Now just imagine hundreds of hot air balloons going up like birds all at the same time!

When you're ready to adventure, and to maintain your adrenaline while flying high in a big basket, this festival is everything you would want to try out.

The sky has around 600 hot air balloons usually and looks like a scene right from a "Pixar movie".

The Fiesta goes on for 9 days, every year as tradition. The dry, warmer climate of Albuquerque offers you a picture-perfect composition for the festival.

People often struggle to find the right the words to describe for you the incredible experience they've had. They would tell you it was something on their bucket list.

So if you want to bask in the glow of hot air balloons against the sunrise, pack up your bags and head to the 78-acre Balloon Fiesta Park in northern Albuquerque. Visitors swear by it and you would love to see this out of world experience.

And don’t forget to visit the botanical garden and zoo when you are in Albuquerque, which are mesmerizing too.
