*** About Mesa Verde National Park: Mesa Verde, located in Montezuma County, Colorado, is not just a national park, but also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is famous for its well-preserved Ancestral Puebloan cliff dwellings, notably the massive Cliff Palace, which is thought to be the largest cliff dwelling in North America. Established as a National Park in 1906 by President Theodore Roosevelt, Mesa Verde offers a spectacular look at over 600 cliff dwellings carved from the hard sandstone cliffs. The park's preservation of nearly 5,000 archaeological sites, including 600 cliff dwellings, offers invaluable insights into the lives of the Ancestral Puebloans who lived here from 600 to 1300 AD.
