Although this isn't a walking destination from downtown Denver, it's worth a visit. I was very lucky to go on a quiet January day in the afternoon, and wouldn't want to be there during peak times as it really isn't that big of a space and would be difficult to really enjoy.

| Walk around the greenhouse area to see a variety of species of butterflies as well as them in their chrysalis form. The four year old I was with loved when the butterflies flew right near her, which they did frequently! |
 |
| Enjoy the small playspace in the back. Flowers, a caterpillar, and a leaf slide are soft climbers similar to that you'd find at the Cherry Creek Mall. |
 |
| Walk through a small maze-type area to find out more information about butterfly farming, natural resources, and the life circle of a butterfly. Walking through a "maze" was fun for the little one, but the information aspect went right over head, although I did try to point out small, simple bits of information that would be relevant to her as a four year old. |

| Against the wall is a small rope bridge for little ones to go across. There is also a small air-pressured tube in the center of the photo where children can put scarves and see them float into the air and try to catch them as they come down. |
