Where Can I Shop in Denver?
Some Denverites spend more money on camping equipment than their entire wardrobe. However, you can still manage to shop 'til you drop in the Mile High City at one of these top shopping centers. From the luxury labels of Cherry Creek to the discount prices of Colorado Mills, there's a store for every style and budget.
The Denver Pavilions boasts an open-air feel in the heart of downtown on the 16th Street Mall. The 16th Street Mall was designed by renowned architectural firm I.M. Pei and Partners. Unlike traditional malls, the Pavilions is not anchored by any department stores. However, the shopping center features popular chains such as Banana Republic, Victoria's Secret and Forever 21. Boutiques, bars, and a bowling alley round out the attractions, as well as a movie theater. The only downside to the Pavilions is parking, which starts at $4 an hour unless validated.

Colorado Mills takes the concept of outlet malls to a new level. Every store in the Mills offers merchandise at discount prices, from Ann Taylor Factory Store to Off 5th Saks Fifth Avenue Outlet. Bargains abound for shoppers willing to put in the extra effort. A movie theater and food court also are located within the mall. The only downside is the somewhat confusing layout of the mall, which divides each section into neighborhoods.
