Nicknamed the Mile High City, Denver can be a pleasant surprise for visitors who come to the city. Sitting at an elevation of around one mile above sea level, the city is home to the Rocky Mountains and offers easy access to innumerable ski resorts. However, those who come on cheap flights to Denver will be able to see a lot more.

The city is truly a family holiday destination, with a lot of places for children and adults to see and enjoy. One of the most popular tourist destinations in the city is the Museum of Nature and Science. It is considered as one of the best science and nature museums in the U.S. Here you can see Egyptian mummies, Imperial tombs from China and many Native American artifacts and tools.

Flights to Denver will also put you in close proximity to the city zoo. Unlike other zoos in the U.S., this one is different and should be visited under all circumstances. It has an array of exhibits and animals that you must see along with your children. Some of the notable attractions in the zoo include African jungle exhibit, African savannah exhibit, Primate Panorama exhibit, Tropical Discovery exhibit and the Bird World.

Another place of interest is the Colorado State Capital Building. The structure is famous for its shiny large dome. You can climb up the building to reach the observation decks, which will give you a breathtaking view of the city. There are guided tours of the building also available, which will allow you to see many other attractions within the State Capitol.

Children will enjoy a visit to the Downtown Aquarium. The aquarium houses 500 different marine species. There is also a restaurant in the building that is lined with see-through glass, so that visitors can enjoy marine life while they are relaxing and eating. A must-see exhibit at the aquarium is the Aquarium Adventure.

Just like most other big cities in the U.S., even Denver has its own botanic gardens. There are more than 30 gardens, and some of the most popular are the Rock Alpine Garden, Xeriscape Demo Garden and the Winnie the Pooh Garden. You can be certain that your kids will love the latter garden a lot and you will find it difficult to drag them away!

People visiting the city in winter can indulge in winter activities, such as snowboarding, sledging, skiing and ice skating. Children can have a whale of a time going snow tubing or riding ski bikes. There are many ski resorts close to Denver, with the most popular ones being Breckenridge and Keystone.

Once you finish enjoying the attractions of the city, you can head to the numerous shopping malls here. Some of the most popular are Cherry Creek, Flat Iron Crossing, 16th Street Mall and Park Meadows. You will surely find souvenirs and items to take back home. Perhaps all the money that you have saved on cheap tickets can be spent during an afternoon of shopping.

One of the good things about flying with U.S. Airways is that you can get airline tickets for cheap. So it makes it economical for large families to spend a wonderful and memorable holiday in this city. However, there are other airlines to that offer cheap tickets to Denver, such as JetBlue Airways and Canada’s low cost airline, WestJet Airlines.
