    1 Whether you are looking for something to occupy an afternoon, or for reasons to stay through the weekend after the conference, Denver has something to appeal to every preference. Denver has 300 days of sunshine a year. With a mild, dry and sunny climate, Denver has more hours of sun than Miami Beach. Remember to use your sunscreen and moisturizer! Denver’s history is colorful. The Gold Rush brought some of the wildest events in the country’s history to Denver. This fascinating period lives again in museums, old gold mining villages and elegant Victorian buildings throughout the city. Denver has the largest city park system in the nation. There are more than 200 parks within the city and 20,000 acres of parks in the nearby mountains. With 70 golf courses and 27 formal flower gardens and one of the nation’s largest urban trail systems, Denver residents and visitors have countless ways to enjoy the outdoors. Denver is a cultural city. Denver citizens contribute more public funding for the arts per capita than any other U.S. city. The Denver Performing Arts Center has nine theaters and is second only to New York’s Lincoln Center in size. Visit www.denvercenter.org to see the events scheduled during your visit. Denver loves its sports. Denver has seven professional sports teams! In addition to football, basketball, hockey, baseball and soccer, Denver has lacrosse and arena football – a dream come true for the sports fan. Denver really is exactly one mile high. By an amazing stroke of good luck, the 13th step on the State Capitol is exactly 5,280 feet above sea level.
