Denver Hotels and Traveler's Guide
The Mile High City is surprisingly flat with the gorgeous Rocky Mountains as its backdrop. Situated on a plain below the mountain range makes the weather rather mild, even as snow envelops most of the rest of Colorado. Denver has great shopping and dining and is a hub of activity and culture. It has come a long way from its Wild West roots and is now a thriving metropolis that offers something for everyone.
