Denver sits exactly one mile above sea level at the foot of the Front Range and serves as the state's travel hub. The downtown core around Union Station, Larimer Square, and the 16th Street Mall has become walkable and lively, with notable institutions including the Denver Art Museum, the Clyfford Still Museum, the Denver Botanic Gardens, and the sprawling City Park. The city is also the craft beer capital of the US with over 150 breweries in the metro area. RiNo (River North), LoDo (Lower Downtown), and the Santa Fe Arts District define distinct neighborhoods. Day trips to Red Rocks Amphitheatre and the foothill trailheads are short drives from the city center.
