Popular Attractions in Colorado

  • Air Force Academy Chapel - In Colorado Springs. Built in 1962, this white spired building is considered a premiere example of Modernist architecture. Designated a National Historic Landmark.
  • Buffalo Bill Museum And Grave - In Golden. Just a stone's throw away from the bristling microwave and communications towers of Denver's TV and radio stations, Buffalo Bill's final resting place is a strange blend of the Old and New West.
  • Celestial Seasonings Tour - In Boulder. Popular free tour of the herbal tea factory, including the overpowering vapors of the spearmint room. Lots of hot tea and free samples.
  • Crow Canyon Archaeological Center - Go on a real archeological dig of Pueblo peoples who lived near Mesa Verde National Park.
  • Denver Mint - Located in downtown Denver. The single largest producer of coins in the world. Free tour, but be sure to go to their web site and book your reservations in advance.
  • Denver Art Museum - Architect Daniel Libeskind designed the new wing of the museum, a thrusting ship-like prow of titanium and glass. Collections include work by Man Ray, Andy Warhol, David Hockney and Philip Guston, as well as an important collection of Western art.
  • Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad - Built by the Denver & Rio Grande Railway in 1879, this steam locomotive carries tourists between Durango and Silverton.
  • Glenwood Springs Hot Springs Pool & Spa - One of the largest hot springs pool in the world. For more Colorado geothermal pools, see the Wikitravel article, hot springs.
  • Kit Carson County Carousel - In Burlington near the Kansas border. After being buried for decades inside its terminal in feed corn, this 100 year old carousel is still in working order and with its original paint.
  • South Park - Near Fairplay. Sadly, no Stan, Kyle, Kenny or Cartman from the eponymous TV cartoon series. But there are some seriously pretty mountains and scenery in this 10,000 ft (3,000 m) plateau.
