Built in 1995, Coors Field helped transform Denver's LoDo neighborhood into the lively restaurant, bar, shopping and entertainment district it is today. Like Union Station a few blocks away, Coors Field is a neighborhood focal point. The stadium seats more than 50,000 fans and occupies 76 acres in LoDo. Public and private tours can be arranged when the Colorado Rockies aren't in the building, and there are sophisticated facilities to book within the stadium for groups looking to create a memorable event for clients or employees. Concerts here feature big-name headliners each summer. For most locals and visitors, however, it's baseball that really matters. As a sports (or trivia) fan, check out row 20 of the upper deck and its line of purple seats that stand out from the rest. They indicate you're exactly one mile, or 5,280 feet, above sea level in the Mile High City.

Denver Local Expert
- Outdoor Activities: "Check out a summer evening's game from the right field bleachers and watch the sun set in the west over 14,265 ft. Mount Evans. It's also not unusual to see rainbows."
- Parks: "Tours of Coors Field, offered on various days during the season and off-season, provide a behind-the-scenes look at a top Major League Baseball park."
- Best for Outdoor Activities Because: Coors Field goes beyond a typical baseball environment offering up cool bars like the Rooftop at Coors Field where craft beers are on tap.
- Best for Parks Because: Ballparks are parks, too, providing fans with a spectacular green field and a place to gather, relax and root, root, root for the home team.
