Telluride
The celebrated soul of this historic town remains spirited and uncompromised. Once bustling the miners in search of gold and silver, over a century later both locals and tourists are enchanted by its history, beauty and charm. Majestic peaks cradle this tiny town, just eight blocks wide, 12 blocks long and peppered with colorful Victorian homes and clapboard storefronts.
Visitors catch a glimpse of Telluride's illustrious past while shopping in a refurbished Victorian home, dining in a renovated ice house or strolling by the site of Butch Cassidy's first bank heist. Telluride's culture is as rich and abundant as silver and gold once once were, with theatrical venues at the historic Sheridan Opera House, art classes at the Ah Haa School and a plethora of bookstores and galleries to spark the intellect. Telluride effortlessly mingles urban sophistication, historic charm and mountain spirit. |
