Denver Information
About Denver
Nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Denver Colorado is known for its beautiful scenery and consistently sunny weather. “The Mile High City" often hosts major events at the Colorado Conference Center, Coors Field (Colorado Rockies), Sports Authority Field at Mile High (Denver Broncos), and Pepsi Center (Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche). Outside of the massive stadiums, major musical acts perform at beautiful Red Rock Amphitheater, as well as Bluebird Theater, Paramount Theater, and Fillmore Auditorium. Once a year, over half a million people gather in Civic Center Park over Labor Day weekend for the 4-day free festival “A Taste of Colorado," which originally celebrated pioneer days in the Old West, but now is mainly a music, food, and art event. Denver has a laid back, liberal, friendly reputation, which has earned the city a reputation for being safe and welcoming.
Denver Neighborhoods
Denver has over a dozen different neighborhoods that tend to be specialized. The busiest part of Denver is Downtown, which comprises several smaller districts including the museum-rich Golden Triangle District and Capitol Hill. Northeast of Downtown is Five Points, a historic area often called “the Harlem of the West" for its jazz and famous African-American figures that hail from there, both of which are chronicled in the Black American West Museum. Uptown and Cherry Creek are both known as some of the most affluent parts of town, boasting premier shopping and large green spaces (City Park and Cherry Creek State Park, respectively). Located on the South Platte riverfront, Lower Downtown (LoDo) and Larimer are considered the trendiest parts of town with the most lively nightlife, while nearby Riverfront is considered the most family-friendly area. Across the river, the Highlands area is gaining a reputation as the up-and-coming “it" spot, with eclectic eateries and a vibrant arts culture centered around Navajo Arts District. At the other end of town are the Old South Pearl and South Broadway neighborhoods, which are locally renowned for their antique shops and local brewpubs, respectively. Located 12 miles from city center is the Golden District, which is home to the Coors Brewery as well as Wild West culture, which can be experienced first-hand at the Buffalo Bill Museum, Colorado Railroad Museum, and scenic horseback riding trails. With an abundance of electrifying neighborhoods in Denver, it may be challenging to narrow down the choices to pick just one to stay at.
