Tourist Information about Denver
The city of Denver is the heart of Middle America 's new-age metropolis despite its proximity to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. The city's affluent culture and commercialized setting can be greatly attributed to where it is situated, the Great Plains . Its subsequent moniker " Queen City of the Plains" was derived from the city's huge role in the United States ' agricultural industry. Doubling as a county, Denver is also dubbed as the " Mile High City " because it is more than a mile above sea level (exactly 5,280 feet). Being positioned in the Great Plains , with the Rocky Mountains just beside it, gives Denver a boost in tourism. Visitors who are inclined towards the urban-type of relaxation can enjoy the vastly commercialized downtowns, while the Rocky Mountains cater to nature-lovers and adventure-seekers.
