Denver is the largest city and capital of the state of Colorado, United States of America. It is the largest city along the Front Range and forms the heart of the Denver Metropolitan Area. |
The city is located on the plains just east of the foothills of the Rockies, which form a dramatic and awe inspiring skyline to the west. |
Denver is nicknamed the "Mile-High City", because its official elevation, measured on one of the steps on the state capitol, is 5,280 feet (1 mile) above sea level. (Text from Wikipedia. Read more ) |
