Downtown Denver

Denver is an outdoor city with a vibrant, walkable downtown offering excitement for all ages. Within a one-mile radius, you can kayak on the Platte River; explore some of the city's best museums; shop at art galleries and boutiques; see a Broadway touring show; enjoy live music; ride a rollercoaster or cool off in a water park; and experience exciting professional sports. Downtown's free and fully-electric 16th Street Free Ride buses makes it easy to get around. Visit Larimer Square and the renovated Denver Union Station in historic LoDo (Lower Downtown), where Victorian buildings now house restaurants, galleries, shops, bars, brewpubs and coffee houses, or head to Denver Pavilions where you'll find shops, restaurants, bars and a movie theater.
