Begin your visit at White Sands National Park in the historic visitor center. The visitor center is an excellent example of Spanish Pueblo-style adobe architecture, also known as 'Pueblo-Revival,' constructed on-site from 1936 to 1938 using readily-available, local materials. The visitor center is where you can obtain information on our daily programs; browse the park store and gift shop; wander through the native plant garden; explore the interactive museum; and be mesmerized by the incredible sights presented in our award-winning orientation film: A Land in Motion.
