SAN GABRIEL On the Camino Real
Governor Juan de Oate set up his headquarters in San Juan Pueblo in 1598, but by 1601 he had moved the Spanish capital across the Rio Grande to Yuque-Yunque Pueblo. Named San Gabriel, it served as the seat of government until 1610, when Oate's successor founded a new capital at Santa Fe. |
