Denver Maps and Orientation

(Denver, Colorado - CO, USA)



Lying within the state of Colorado, the cosmopolitan city of Denver serves as both the state capital and the state's biggest city. Denver is located in the county of the same name, being a sizeable city with a population now topping 600,000 people, while its metropolitan population has recently exceeded 2.5 million.

Partly bounded by Broadway and the Colfax Avenue, the Downtown district is filled with towering skyscrapers, while the Lower Downtown area (LoDo) of Denver offers more in the way of history, along with a number of breweries and a lively dining scene. LoDo is also where you will find the popular 16th Street Mall and its huge concentration of shops.

Sightseers should note that the majority of the city's principal attractions are to be found within the Downtown district, as well as numerous hotels. Less than 30 minutes away are a number of surrounding suburb towns and cities, including the likes of Arvada, Aurora, Centennial, Englewood, Lakewood, Thornton and Westminster.
