GATEWAY CITIES
The international gateway cities of Denver, Colorado, and Minneapolis/ St. Paul/Bloomington, Minnesota, are conveniently located for exploring the Great American West.
Denver's walkable downtown features chef-owned restaurants, brewpubs, professional sports, shopping, family attractions, arts and culture. Catch a show, find your new favorite pour and taste farm-to-table cuisine like it was intended!
In Denver, you can choose your own adventure. You can find your favorite art mural in RiNo (River North) Art District; shop or dine in Larimer Square; visit Cherry Creek for its shopping, luxe boutiques, galleries and restaurants; enjoy Union Station with its 100-year-old history and an eclectic array of restaurants, bars and shops; or get active (or chill) in one of Denver's 250-plus urban parks. And these are only a few ideas!
Experience the Mile-High magic firsthand and see why Denver is the premier gateway to the West.
The international gateway of Minneapolis/St. Paul/Bloomington is comprised of three cities, each with unique offerings and experiences. With over 180 parks, 22 lakes and one iconic river in the city of Minneapolis, green space is everywhere! Go biking, canoeing, kayaking or take a scenic river cruise on the mighty Mississippi River.
