Larimer Square
Worth it? YES as a short, atmospheric downtown stop. The play: stroll the block for the Victorian architecture and the string lights (especially pretty at night), grab a drink or dinner, and fold it into a LoDo walk with Union Station and the 16th Street Mall. Check for seasonal events/ markets on the block.
Who it’s NOT for: Travelers wanting a large district to explore — it's essentially one historic block (charming but compact). Anyone expecting a ticketed attraction or museum — it's a free-to-walk historic street of businesses. Budget travelers assuming it's cheap to dine — the restaurants skew mid-to-upscale.
Skip it if: You have no interest in historic streetscapes or downtown dining — but as a 30-60 minute add-on to a LoDo evening it's an easy yes.
Cost: $Booking: none to walk the block; reserve popular restaurants ahead. Check the block's event calendar for seasonal happenings.
