Denver > Best Of Denver

The Mile High city has lots to see and do, but do you have to see and do everything?  We’ve visited all the attractions in Denver and narrowed the selections down to a couple of our favorites. These attractions are an essential part of Denver, and shouldn’t be missed if you have the time. 

Rocky Mountain National Park
In an area overflowing with activities and mountain destinations, Rocky Mountain National Park is the old standby, and a good one at that. There are 355 miles of hiking trails, ranging from easy to difficult and from a couple hours in duration to several days. 

Lower Downtown (LoDo)
Ten years ago, Lower Downtown was virtually a ghost town within a big city. Abandoned warehouses and unsavory characters contributed to an ambience that forced people elsewhere once the sun went down.  Today, LoDo, as it’s affectionately called, is a huge success.

Center for Performing Arts
The Denver Performing Arts complex is truly an awesome sight and has helped Denver gain recognition as one of the premier cultural centers in the nation. With a mix of historic buildings and some new art deco designs, it is a celebration of past, present and future.
