There are few places in the United States
where visitors still risk the chance of encountering a western shootout between
gun-slinging cowboys, and although its just a show, downtown Cheyenne is one
of them. Established in 1867, this historical city has not forgotten the important
role both cowboys and the national railroad played in their community. Each
July the city celebrates their rich western heritage with Frontier
Days, a week-long rodeo and fair that features performances, carnival rides,
exhibitors and more. In the 1920s the railroad was one of the key factors in
populating the Cheyenne area, something that is evident by the numerous attractions.
The original Cheyenne
Depot is completely restored and has many exhibits on the railroad. As well,
the world's largest working steam engine, Big
Boy, is located in central Cheyenne. The location of Cheyenne, 100 miles
north of Denver on the plains
and foothills, creates a perfect setting for wildlife viewing and an opportunity
for many leisure activities.
