Restaurants and micro-breweries are varied and plentiful. The Denver Performing Arts Center, the 16th Street Mall, the Tattered Cover Bookstore, the Pepsi Center, Coors Field, the History Colorado Center, and the Denver Art Museum are all clustered in the downtown area. In particular, the DAM is very kid friendly. REI’s flagship store, with its four story climbing wall, the Downtown Aquarium, and Elitch Gardens amusement park are about 1.3 mile walks from downtown. If you wish to range a bit further, The Denver Museum of Nature and Science is a can’t miss attraction for lovers of all things dinosaur. Next door to the Museum of Nature and Science is the Denver Zoo. The new Elephant Passage exhibit recently opened.
