Columbus

Columbus is designated a National Historic site. On March 9, 1916, General Francisco Pancho Villa invaded the United States, and attacked Camp Furlon (now Pancho Villa State Park). The small village is located in the high desert three miles north of the international port of entry to Mexico.
