First, you have to visit Royal Gorge Bridge & Park.
This historical landmarks is home to the worlds highest suspension bridge. You will not be able to get these views from anywhere else in the world. You can take a ride on the world’s longest single-span Arial Tram, or even take a burro (donkey) or horseback ride on the rim of the gorge. The park also offers shows, attractions, shopping, and dining experiences.

Next, you should check out Denver’s world renowned museums and cultural centers. The Denver Art museum is an architectural masterpiece by itself, plus it is full of fantastic artwork. The Denver Performing Arts Complex, the second largest in the world, is home to an opera house, concert hall, and multiple theaters. There are different types of destinations for all members of the family.

Haven’t you always wanted to know what it was like to be a part of the Gold Rush of the 1800′s? Well, you could pretend and take a trip to the Phoenix Gold Mine. While you are there, you can take tours of the old mines, and even pan for gold yourself.  You probably won’t strike it rich, but the fun part the panning itself. They also offer hiking/nature trails, if you so desire.
