6 days in Denver Itinerary

Aptly nicknamed the "Mile-High City," Denver sits at an altitude of 1,600 m (5,280 ft) above sea level, located right where the Great Plains give way to the Rocky Mountains.

Your day by day itinerary now includes Colorado State Capitol as well as Larimer Square. Give yourself a bit of retail therapy at 16th Street Mall and Tattered Cover Book Store Colfax. Satisfy your inner culture vulture at Butterfly Pavilion and Insect Center and Center for Colorado Women's History at the Byers-Evans House. Next up on the itinerary: examine the collection at Kirkland Museum of Fine & Decorative Art, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, steep yourself in history at Molly Brown House Museum, and admire the masterpieces at Clyfford Still Museum.
