we were in colorado for a week. came solely for hiking. and BOY WE FOUND IT!
After reading Zhang Xiaodong's articles, I have always been interested in Denver, and the Rocky Mountains can be said to be one of the most famous attractions in Denver. Especially if you drive here, the scenery along the way is really good!

It is a very large museum with a rich collection of art. It not only introduces the United States, but also displays cultural relics from all over the world, including Asia. There are also many special exhibitions to visit.
The art museum has many beautiful exhibits, and the building itself is very beautiful, irregular polygonal, with many interesting exhibitions on different themes, very suitable for family visits

I haven't been able to go abroad for a while, so I can only take out the photos I took before and look at them. I miss it a lot. We also bought a lot of things in this place, and its architecture is also very local.
Sixteenth Street is a very lively place in Denver, especially at night. There are many shops and restaurants. We even saw a horse-drawn carriage here, which is very interesting. You can come here to have fun in Denver at night.

The red rocks where amazing ! Awesome views just 30 minutes from Downtown Denver ! The natural Trail makings even better in the evenings during the summer.
I should have come. I didn't catch the concert due to limited time, but the wide and beautiful view made me feel relaxed. Students from surrounding schools also have physical education classes here.

No.1 of Family-Friendly Attractions in Colorado

First cage-free zoo in USA

Lots of great exhibits and the animals look well cared for. I would love for more non zoo attractions and services. More food stands for instance.
It's a big zoo, especially suitable for bringing children. There are many animals, and the animals look very energetic. The park itself is also a very beautiful place. And there are not many visitors.
