Top Reasons to Go to Denver
Denver Art Museum: Visitors are treated to Asian, pre-Columbian, and Spanish Colonial works along with a world-famous collection of Native American pieces.
Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre: Even if you aren't attending a concert, the awe-inspiring red rocks of this formation-turned-venue are worth a look and there are hiking trails nearby.
Denver Botanic Gardens: Creatively arranged displays of more than 15,000 plant species from around the world draw garden enthusiasts year-round.
Larimer Square: Specialty stores, superior people-watching, and some of the city's top restaurants and nightlife bring tourists and locals alike to the city's oldest street.
LoDo: Lower downtown's appeal lies in its proximity to Coors Field and the convenient and free 16th Street Mall shuttle. Shops and galleries are busy during the day, and it's also a hot spot at night.
