This is the vibrant capital city of Colorado, in the Western US. Denver is quite a modern city, is there wasn’t much ancient history in this area, and has developed with a colorful artsy vibe that matches its inhabitants!

More noticeably, Denver is a gateway to the Rocky Mountains region adjacent to it, and many rugged mountains can be seen from around the city. Lovers of the outdoors and activities like hiking, camping, river rafting etc crowd here in the warmer months, and nearby skiing in the winter.

I toured the city by day and evening to see the lifestyle contrasts. Let’s start with these daytime pictures from around the major business, arts and event districts:

Next are the night photos showing how some buildings are lit up and some popular evening hangout areas:
