 ColoradoSure, Denver has morphed into a city of top-notch hotels, edgy architecture, and great restaurants, but much of the action remains in the year-round playground of the Rocky Mountains. Some of America’s most gorgeous terrain has long been a wealth-magnet for towns like Vail and Aspen, but celebrated chefs and high-end shops are making their way into smaller hamlets as well. And every place from Boulder to Telluride wants a piece of the action. After all, it’s nature that people come for, whether to carve fresh tracks on a ski slope, bomb down a hill on a mountain bike, or just sit on a balcony and watch as the red fingers of dawn reach out over massive mountain peaks to grasp a new day. |

 Mercury CafeThe Mercury Café -- known to locals as The Merc -- is a restaurant, bakery, coffeehouse, bar, dance club, and concert hall. It is hard to pinpoint the exact style of this eclectic nightspot, serving up everything from Celtic and Cajun to theater and poetry.

 Denver Museum of Nature and ScienceThe Denver Museum of Nature & Science has always lured fascinating temporary exhibitions—including Titanic treasures and Egyptian artifacts. But its permanent displays are intriguing as well, always interactive, educational and entertaining. Here, visitors can learn about space, wildlife, ancient mummies and other workings of the world. Discovery Zone keeps younger children occupied with hands-on activities that include dressing up like a dinosaur and digging for fossils. The gigantic-screened IMAX Theater is next door, as is Gates Planetarium for out-of-this-world views. The entire complex is located in central Denver's City Park with welcomed free parking…along with plenty of trees, ponds and terrific views of the Rocky Mountains.

 Denver Botanic GardensSometimes people in the middle of a metropolitan area just want a quiet place to walk and relax—and the Denver Botanic Gardens facility is an ideal retreat. Open year-round, the facility is partitioned off into separate collections with plants and flowers from alpine to aquatic, desert to tropical. A charming Japanese garden is a perennial favorite. For the average gardener, this is a chance to gain planting and setup ideas, or conservation tips. Those with a more scholarly slant can get detailed specifics from an enthusiastic staff. The venue is a Denver favorite for outdoor summer concerts, plus year-round classes and activities. Temporary exhibits and special events such as the annual Blossoms of Light holiday display and seasonal plant sales dot the calendar. Visitors can also experience Botanic Gardens' satellite locations scattered about Denver: a nature preserve at Chatfield Reservoir, alpine tundra at Mount Goliath and Centennial Gardens, a Colorado-based display with a French twist.

 Coors FieldBuilt in 1995 at a cost of $215 million covered by sponsor Coors Brewing Company and local tax dollars, Denver's baseball-only stadium is a standout. Anyone who visits Coors Field gets an enjoyable experience, baseball fan or not. Games have a festive air no matter how the home-team Colorado Rockies perform and the facilities are kept sparkling clean. Guest Relations ushers are friendly as they chat about the team, hand out suntan lotion and even spritz fans with water during warm afternoons. The venue holds 50,000, with a row of purple seats circling the stadium at exactly 5,280 feet above sea level—the Rockies' tribute to Denver's "Mile High City" nickname. Mountain views are plentiful from the first-base side, The Rockpile is a fun time in bleacher seats for only a few dollars, and club-level fans get personalized food-and-beverage service. In addition to concessions stands around the stadium, visitors can also grab a beer at onsite Sandlot Brewery. Stadium tours are available year-round, focusing on Rockies history plus a look behind the scenes.

The facility sits on 18 acres, with 500 species of both lake and saltwater creatures on view, plus corresponding land critters that include three resident tigers. Visitors can safely touch stingrays and avoid the sharks at the beach exhibit, or pan for gold in the Northwest Experience display. Watch dive demonstrations, or take part in a "Swim with the Fish" adventure experience onsite—no dive certificate required. At Aquarium Restaurant, guests are seated around a 150,000-gallon aquarium with a variety of fascinating fishes swimming nearby (don't worry, they aren't slated for the menu).

 Denver Art MuseumIn 2006, the Denver Art Museum expanded to a total of 350,000 square feet and did it with flair, connecting the original structure with the newly constructed Frederic C. Hamilton Building across the street. The contemporary exterior with enclosed walkway is strikingly situated over 13th Avenue. Always known for its permanent collection of American Indian and pre-Columbian art, the museum now holds 60,000 works and continues to attract additional temporary exhibitions—from historic baseball photos to borrowed treasures from The Louvre. Interactive displays, tours and children's activities are marks of a venue dedicated to making art more accessible and relatable to the general public. Annual wine-focused "DAM Uncorked" serves as both a fundraiser and must-attend event. Generally, museum gift shops are a treat and the one located inside the Denver Art Museum is no exception—as is its onsite, creatively casual restaurant Palettes.
