Denver is the capital of Colorado and one Western US's prettiest cities.
Established in 1858 by a group of gold prospectors, Denver, the capital of Colorado, has experienced dramatic booms and busts over the last century and a half. Originally a popular mining and agricultural supply city, Denver's 300 days of sunshine, wide open spaces and diversified industrial base have helped make it one of the healthiest economies in the U.S. Its bakeries, breweries, and restaurants, recognized for their originality and creativity, continue to thrive so it's no surprise to find numerous culinary schools in the Denver urban area.
