  2. Red Rocks Park & Amphitheatre

    Red Rocks Park & Amphitheatre is set between 400ft-high red sandstone rocks 15 miles southwest of Denver. Acoustics are so good that many artists record live albums here. The 9000-seat theater offers stunning views and draws big-name bands all summer. Even if you can't take in a show (concerts from around US$30 ), visit the park to hike through the bizarrely placed rocks.
