You will not regret going to see Red Rocks! If not for a show, you can go visit at any time during the day to just take in the views, walk the steps, or go on a hike close by. There is even a museum about the history of Red Rocks, that is a bonus!
The town of Golden has got to be my favorite town in Colorado. It's charm and beauty is undeniable! I hope you find time to go and explore it all. The shops and restaurants are great. In the summer, many people decide to float down the river. If you find yourself at the Golden Mill, listed above, you must take a walk through town as well!
