Looming slabs of blood-red sandstone that perfectly reverberate sound waves make this setting so iconic many bands choose to release dvds of their concerts here. Nearly every Coloradan has at least one story of an epic evening spent among the monoliths overlooking the city lights in the company of great artists.

During his self-imposed exile from the New York School Still painted a vast body of work. Denver was personally selected by the artist to house his entire collection. The museum built for the purpose is a masterpiece, with a perforated ceiling that filters natural light, illuminating the space without exposing the paintings to harmful UV rays.

The park's 2015 season runs from May 2nd through November 1st. Nothing will bring you back to best moments of childhood faster than the heartstopping adrenaline rush of a 50 mph roller coaster in the heat of summer.

Though the dunes aren't located in Denver by any stretch of the imagination, they are an easy drive from the capitol for a weekend sidetrip. Most visitors come to Colorado for the mountains, and you should absolutely see those too, but shamefully few see this truly stunning natural wonder.

The Source epitomizes the soul of the surrounding RiNo district. Recently wrought by industrial blight, entrepreneurs have ingeniously repurposed abandoned buildings and scrap materials to ressurect the neighborhood as the city's new artistic hub. Not only a one-stop shop for all things gourmet, the Source is also a captivating architectural space.

Originally occupying a renovated fish market, the museum has majorly upgraded in 2007 to an environmentally sustainable facility designed by the acclaimed architect David Adjaye.

There's no particular point to this event other than to have the excuse to dress up like a deadman and cause a ruckus. It's oddly wholesome fun for all ages, and if you do feel obliged to imbue your death with some purpose, you're invited to bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the Food Bank of the Rockies. Otherwise, joining in is free!

So many supernatural sitings were reported that the city had to halt the removal of corpses. Thus, some two to three thousand unidentified dead still rest just under the turf of the park. Not only is Cheesman a pleasant place for a picnic, it's also been long counted among America's most haunted places.

Amsterdam hosted the first years of the cup, but Denver is the flagship location stateside. The world's best growers gather here in an effort to receive honors for the quality of their product, so if you indulge there are sure to be a few strains you'll enjoy and haven't yet encountered. There are also concerts, lectures and other events.

Coors Field offers all the classic components of an Americana-rich baseball game. Food and beer vendors are abundant, occassionally even some peddling regional craft brews (all much better than Coors, in my humble opinion). Also the weather in Denver is nearly always warm and sunny in summer and fall, making this stadium particularly comfortable.

The Hamilton wing, an angular conglomeration of steel prisms by Daniel Libeskind, supposedly references the contours of the Rocky Mountains but looks like architecture from another world. Despite giving some visitors vertigo with its lack of straight walls and a persistently leaky roof, the structure is an impressive feat of design and engineering.
