Overview

On this self-guided walking tour through Denver, Colorado’s vibrant capital, you’ll journey through its historic downtown area and explore the architecture, culture, and little-known facts that define the city’s urban center.

Have you ever wondered why the Colorado State Capitol has a golden dome? Or wanted to stand on the exact spot that’s a mile high from sea level? Or wished to know why Denver’s most famous resident, Molly Brown, was called “unsinkable”?

The tour starts at the Greek Amphitheatre in Civic Centre Park, where you’ll spot two hidden murals by renowned artist Allen Tupper True, The Prospector and The Trapper, showcasing Denver’s gold panners and trappers. As you pass two statues – On the War Trail and Buster Bronco – which symbolize Colorado’s Native American heritage and cowboy culture, I’ll tell you about sculptor Alexander Phimister Proctor, a Colorado native who gained international acclaim.
