Most well-known as the site of an alleged 1947 UFO crash, Roswell offers so much more than aliens. Of course, there’s the Mcdonald’s shaped like a flying saucer, but there are also the unique shops, murals, historic district, and the Roswell Museum showcasing American Southwest art. Check out the Robert H. Goddard Planetarium with its full-dome digital theater, and for stunning outdoor scenery, explore the Bottomless Lakes Park, Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge, and the Mescalero Sand Dunes.
