Albuquerque is a modest, warm town in the American Southwest, almost halfway between Texas and Arizona on Route 40 and the commercial center of New Mexico. It's a great spot for tourists looking to escape from the winter blues, and it's also where the popular series "Breaking Bad" is filmed.

Now entering its fifth season, "Breaking Bad" is shot in a variety of venues across the city, most of which are easy to find with some creative Googling. Flickr user waldruggie hosts the best series of images and locations, filling a gallery with more than 150 pictures. Most pictures have locations and discussion attached to them, so taking advantage of a long layover in the city last weekend, the staff at Gadling Labs built a dandy MapQuest guide and followed the bread crumbs throughout the city. Surprisingly, most of the venues are centered around two hotspots only fifteen minutes apart and it's even possible to visit the "homes" of Walter White and Jessie. Click through the gallery below to see a few hotspots or check out waldruggie's gallery to build your own customized "Breaking Bad" tour.
