One City’s Secret to Happiness: The Annual Burning of a 50-Foot Effigy

Every year, Santa Fe incinerates a giant puppet of Zozobra — a ritual meant to purge anxiety and promote a reset.

For most of the millions of travelers who make the trek each year, there is no reason to go to Santa Fe except to go to Santa Fe. Just about everything that needs doing can and should be done somewhere else, someplace easier to get to than this tiny city 7,000 feet in the air, whose airport terminal is a fraction of the size of a typical American grocery store. But this town of 90,000 residents strives to ensure that its singularity is reason enough.

一座城市的幸福秘訣:每年焚燒一座 50 英尺高的雕像

每年,聖達菲都會焚燒一個巨大的佐佐布拉木偶——這項儀式旨在消除焦慮並促進重置。
對於每年數以百萬計的長途跋涉的旅行者來說,除了去聖達菲之外,沒有理由去聖達菲。幾乎所有需要做的事情都可以而且應該在其他地方完成,比這個海拔 7,000 英尺的小城市更容易到達的地方,它的機場航站樓只有一家典型的美國雜貨店大小的一小部分。但這個擁有 90,000 名居民的小鎮努力確保其獨特性足以成為理由。
