Denver > Shopping

As the largest city in a 600-mile (966 km) radius, Denver has always been the shopping capital of the Rocky Mountain West.  The city features the largest sporting goods store in the world (Gart Brothers Sports Castle) and the largest independent bookstore in America with over 400,000 volumes (the Tattered Cover).

The 16th Street Mall
A mile-long pedestrian promenade through the heart of downtown Denver, lined with shops, department stores and outdoor cafes.  Free buses leave either end as often as every 90 seconds with 1,400 chairs placed out daily, making this the best spot for  "people watching" in the city.  In summer, the Mall is decorated with 25,000 flowers including 8,400 impatiens, 6,528 petunias, 648 snapdragons and 370 geraniums.

Cherry Creek North
An eclectic mix of galleries, restaurants, shops, clothing designers and cafes, all on pleasant tree-lined streets directly adjacent to the Cherry Creek Shopping Center.

Cherry Creek Shopping Center
