Introduction
For many out-of-state travelers, Denver is a gateway city, a transitional stop before heading into the nearby Rocky Mountains. Often, visitors will simply fly into Denver International Airport, rent a car, ask for directions to I-70 and head west into the mountains. But it's worth scheduling an extra few days, or even a few hours, to delve into the city itself. LoDo is a far better party district than any of the sparse ski-bar areas in Vail or Breckenridge, for example, and the downtown museums and outdoor paths are hidden treasures (unless you happen to live here). The city is a fairly easy place to maneuver, with prominent hotels such as the Brown Palace, excellent shopping at Cherry Creek and Larimer Square, sporting events ranging from the fabulous Avalanche to the hapless Nuggets, and plenty of (expensive) parking.Content provided by
