At Quarai is the most complete church in the whole monument — an impressive structure that towers above the visitor who walks through its remains. The half-mile loop trail also passes by unexcavated mounds and a small creek. A small museum is located at the ranger station.
The Salinas Pueblo Missions are a series of ruins of several Native American villages and Spanish missions dating back to Spanish colonial times, which were later abandoned. The monument is composed of three sites: Abo, Quarai, and Gran Quivira. All three showcase the remains of impressive Spanish missions and the partially excavated Native American villages alongside them. All three sites also have a small ranger station and gift shop, where you can learn about the history of the site and purchase trail guides.
