Taos Pueblo is a sovereign Tiwa nation and the valley's oldest community — continuously inhabited for about a thousand years, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the town of Taos's neighbor, not one of its attractions. The Pueblo welcomes visitors on its own terms. These are its rules, summarized from taospueblo.com; that site and the tourism office are the authority on all of it.
Feast days: total camera ban
Late-winter closure

Fees are set by Taos Pueblo and can change — check taospueblo.com before you go.
Town Tools builds free, public tools for Taos and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.
You are a guest in a living community, on sovereign land with its own government, courts and rules — visit, in the Pueblo's words, as if it were your own home.
Respect every Restricted Area sign; they protect residents' privacy and religious sites. Do not enter the cemetery or the river.
Enter only buildings clearly marked as businesses — unmarked doors are people's homes.
Photography: never photograph tribal members without their permission, no photography at all inside San Geronimo Chapel, and professional or commercial photography requires pre-approval and fees.
On feast days the rules tighten completely: no photos or recordings of any kind — cell phones, cameras and drones are confiscated, with no return.
