A Romantic Walk in Denver, Co, Denver, Colorado
Valentine鈥檚 Day is the perfect day to take on this romantic 2.5 mile through Denver鈥檚 most romantic spots. Here鈥檚 where to go for a Valentine鈥檚 Day walk through downtown Denver.
Nothing says romance like great views and the ticking of time. The聽Daniels & Fisher tower, built to promote the now-defunct Daniels & Fisher, nee May Stores, was restored just in front off the wrecking ball in the 1980s. With doors from the crumbed Ford building in Detroit, this clock tower beauty gives stunning views of downtown and romantic thoughts of proposals and weddings. On Saturdays at noon, the events group gives $10 tours to all takers.
After taking the elevator for 17 floors and stepping to the top for another 5 floors, we viewed 360 degrees of downtown including the Rockies and Sports Authority field. In addition, we saw wonderful clock faces and fabulous chandeliers! I wondered if any ghosts lived in the tower as we headed down the elevator and ambled toward Union Station.
We picked up some chocolate from Rocky Mountain Chocolate, and then we enjoyed our 6-7 block walk on聽16th Street Mall聽to arrive at Wynkoop and聽Union Station. Built in 1880 and then remodeled in 1911, this throwback to rail heydays still stands in glory. Once over 150 trains came through a day, and now Rapid Transit Denver can take you by聽rail to Denver International Airport. While at Union Station, we stopped through Bloom for a rose and then the聽Crawford Hotel聽allowed us a secret peek from the second floor. ......
