Denver, Colorado, is one good place to be if you are looking for culture, tradition, and entertainment with all the comforts of technology while surrounded by the graceful grandeur of the Colorado Mountains. Called the "Mile High City," Denver is the administrative, commercial, transportation, and entertainment capital of the Rockies. It was founded in 1858 as a small mountain town that has since then grown into the consolidated city country that is Denver today. Denver sits on the South Platte River Valley on the High Plains and got its unique nickname because it sits exactly a mile above sea level.

Denver is known for its snow-capped mountain peaks and great snow sports, aside from all the other business, cultural, and entertainment establishments that every good city must have. And Denver has them all and more, as proven when Sperlings of MSN ranked Denver second in America's Ten Best Places to Live in 2003. The city has continued to evolve and improve since then, with the addition of modern architectural marvels those house hotels, business offices, museums and shops. Denver's globally-renowned tourist attractions include the Denver Zoo, the Downtown Aquarium, the US Mint and the Four Mile Historic Park, which features the oldest home in the city.
