Colorado, Boulder -- a small town on the edge of the Rocky Mountains

On Saturday morning, get up early, after breakfast. We drove to Boulder City. It is very close to the city of Denver, located in Denver Northwest 27 miles, in the Rocky Mountains, the altitude of 3000 meters, about 96,000 inhabitants. It is a very quiet town, University of Colorado-Boulder in there. Especially for people living in cities, there has Rocky Mountain sunshine, there has Rocky Mountains leisure.

The annual April to November on Wednesday and Saturday, at 13th Street near, Boulder Farmers' Market, 150 farming families who bring home-grown vegetables, raising flowers, homemade wine, made ​​desserts, prepared crafts, gathered in here. Residents and tourists who are holding their pet dogs, with their loved ones, to buy goods produced absolutely own.


Pearl Street Mall and 29th Street is the business concentrated in Boulder. 29th street full of modern flavor is gathered in a variety of brand-name commercial shopping center, but if you do not shopping a lot, then the Pearl Street is the place to spend time. Here is full of dramas, there are many fine cafes and restaurants on both sides of the street, features a variety of arts and crafts shops, and street performers entertainers, many children playgrounds. . . In short, you can enjoy a cup of coffee a day of leisure time; I like this particular street, like her colorful, like sitting in the street watching tourists, like listening to artists playing this wonderful music.

Most tourists come to the U.S., the residence time is very short in Boulder City. We are just short rest,  toward Rocky Mount.
