Denver: A Mile High City That Won't Leave You Breathless (Unless You're From Kansas)
So, you're thinking about hitting the Mile High City? Hold on to your cowboy hats, folks, because Denver is a place that packs a punch. Sure, it might be a tad thin on air (thanks, science!), but Denver makes up for it with a heaping helping of fun.
But First, Coffee (or Something Stronger)
Let's be honest, travel can be tiring. So, kick things off right with a caffeine jolt at a local coffee shop. Denver has a thriving independent coffee scene, so you can ditch the corporate giants and find a place with a quirky vibe and a barista who remembers your name (and your order) by the second visit. Feeling a little more adventurous? Hit up a dispensary (it's legal here, folks!) for a different kind of buzz. Just remember, "responsible tourism" is a thing, and respecting local laws is always cool.
Calling All Culture Vultures (and Everyone Else)
Denver isn't all mountains and cowboys (although there's plenty of that too). The city boasts a thriving art scene, with world-class museums like the Denver Art Museum showcasing everything from ancient artifacts to contemporary masterpieces. Prefer your art a little more...well, streetwise? Stroll around the RiNo district and marvel at the ever-changing murals that sprawl across buildings.
Nature is Calling (and You Should Probably Answer)
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.
Okay, okay, we know Denver is surrounded by stunning natural beauty. So, lace up your hiking boots and hit the trails! Golden Gate Canyon State Park offers breathtaking views and challenging hikes, while Red Rocks Park provides a chance to commune with nature and maybe catch a concert at the world-famous amphitheater (seriously, the acoustics here are legendary). Feeling less strenuous? Rent a bike and cruise along the Cherry Creek Trail, a paved path that winds its way through the city.
