The Gisewatowa (GEE-say-wah-tuu-wah), Pueblo is located at the Jemez Historic Site in Jemez Springs, New Mexico. The name translates to "Village by the Sulphur" which is a reference to the many hot springs in the area. By manually counting the number of rooms in the user guide the massive pueblo appears to have had over 200 rooms just in the bottom story. Some parts of the pueblo were as much as 3 stories high.
