Don't miss the anchutz sky terrace for the best view of Denver!
If you I going to see the Bidy World's exhibit, I recommend early Subday am. We went at 10:15, and there was no crowd.
James KongMarch 14, 2012Always something to see at the museum. Hmm tempted to camp overnight one of these days. Looking at Dinosaurs never get old.
Ask for museum seek and find to mix it up a little.
aram papazianFebruary 26, 2013It might take you 2 days to accomplish the whole thing... The planetarium isn't worth it; they don't show any stars...
Last few weeks of Pirates! Museum is offering extended hours for this exhibit...don't miss it!

Check out the Science Lounge, pretty cool even for non-science people.
Rejal HowellApril 27, 2013They don't have parking lot is full signs. Don't come here unless you have hours to find parking.

"I love watching historical films and just under the sea shows. I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to nice imax theatres. But this also has 3D films. Lovely overall."

"Unexpected bargain for a large selection from fresh to fried. It is there. Soup was amazing. Beef and sweet potato stew."

"Always fantastic to go to. It truly is a surround sound and vision area. I recommend sitting further in the back so you don't have to tilt your head back as much."

"A great place to go to relearn about space. I recommend this for younger kids from 2-9 or older adults just because of the activities and mass amounts of reading. Check out one of the computer"

"A great area for all ages. This is one of the most popular and time consuming exhibits as everyone tries to complete their peak pass. I recommend going first thing in the morning."

"Lots to see and do. Be sure to take a map so you don't miss out on anything. Food on site can be expensive. There are free admission days sometimes. Parking can be difficult to find."
