Throughout the years, the Mile High City has sacrificed some beautiful examples of architecture that would have dated back to its first boom in the late 19th century. There are a few gems, however, that have been preserved and are open to the public today. Two of these are included in this day of perfection: The Molly Brown House Museum and Castle Marne Bed and Breakfast.
Few perfect days begin with tales of lechery and treachery, but if you're at all interested in the history of Denver, head downtown where you can experience a Denver History Walking Tour, visit historic sites, and even tour a late 19th century home.
Denver has a vivid literary history including famed work from many poets, novelists and journalists; some born and raised in Colorado's capital while others, residents for only a short time. What they all have in common is they and their prose were influenced by Denver.
