Coors Field (Denver, Colorado)

After visiting the State Capitol, we were lucky enough to catch a baseball game between the Colorado Rockies and the Miami Marlins, at Coors Field in Denver's Lower Downtown (LoDo) area. The game was a victory for the Rockies (12-5), and we had a great time exploring the stadium, taking pictures, and enjoying the great summer day. Behind the center field wall is a landscape decoration that reflects the typical environment of the Rocky Mountains. This landscape area consists of a waterfall, fountains, and pine trees. After a Rockies home run or win the fountains shoot high into the air. While most of the seats in Coors Field are dark green, the seats in the 20th row of the upper deck are purple. This marks the city's one mile elevation point.
