Window Rock is the administrative capitol of the Navajo Nation, getting its name from the hole in the 200 foot high sandstone hill (Window Rock) located there. Located about 27 miles northwest of Gallup, N.M., and about 6 miles southeast of Fort Defiance, Arizona, it is just across the New Mexico-Arizona state line, on the Arizona side, in Apache County. Window Rock contains the Navajo Nation Council House, the Navajo Nation Museum, and Window Rock Fairgrounds where the Navajo Nation Fair (Widow Rock Fair) is annually held.
