\nBoulder<\/a> gets nearly as much sunshine as Phoenix<\/a>, but without all the heat. Sunscreen is a must, but don\u2019t forget to protect your eyes, too. Grab a pair of trendy sunglasses or prescription glasses at Aspen Eyewear. Trust me, you\u2019ll need them.<\/p>\n

2. Pearl Street Mall Is A Real Gem<\/h2>\n

\nThis brick-lined pedestrian mall features upwards of 1,000 businesses. With 85 percent of them locally owned and operated, you get to experience an eclectic assortment of restaurants, shops, and activities.<\/p>\n

3. It Has The Best People Watching In The State<\/h2>\n

\nOn Pearl Street you can see dancers, jugglers, fire-eaters, musicians, magicians, and there\u2019s even one guy who has memorized every zip code in the country!<\/p>\n

4. Get Ready To Lead An Active Lifestyle<\/h2>\n

\nBoulder is a very active city, you\u2019ll always see people out walking, running, biking, rollerblading, mountain climbing, kayaking\u2014you name it, they do it. And they love it! The best place to find gear from camping and hiking to snowsports and trail running, is at MontBell. The best place to get fit is Flatirons. Formerly the Flatiron Athletic Club, this is the epicenter for world-class triathlon training. Many of the coaches are world champion Ironman winners and Olympic gold medalists.<\/p>\n

5. So You Want To Be An Olympian Or A Pro Athlete?<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nIt\u2019s not unusual to see Iron Woman Chrissie Wellington, among other professional athletes, running down the streets of Boulder. Mild weather and high elevation attracts athletes from all over the world to train year round.<\/p>\n

6. The Dushanbe Tea House Is Breathtaking<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nThe Dushanbe Teahouse has great food, tea and atmosphere. But what\u2019s really interesting is that it was completely built by hand in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, a sister city to Boulder. Over 40 artisans worked on the tea house for three years. It was then disassembled and gifted to Boulder in celebration of their city sisterhood.<\/p>\n

7. There Are More Ph.D.s Per Capita Than Any Other City<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nIt\u2019s a major government research hub. NCAR, NIST, and a large office for NAOA call Boulder home. Next time you\u2019re sitting in Amante Coffee and overhear some grey-haired guys with ponytails talking about global warming, they could very well be top scientists doing the leading research in their fields.<\/p>\n

8. The Beer Will Blow Your Mind<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nBreweries and craft beers abound. Avery Brewing has 21 different craft beers on tap, and when it\u2019s in season don\u2019t miss the Chocolate Mint Stout. Other microbreweries to try are Boulder Beer, Upslope Brewing, Twisted Pine and Mountain Sun\/Southern Sun.<\/p>\n

9. It\u2019s Home To Mork And Mindy<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nI really hope you get my reference to Robin William\u2019s break out comedy show of the late \u201970s. Many scenes for this fun science fiction comedy were shot all over town. You can still view the private residence from the street at 1619 Pine Street. It is located in the heart of the old town area, which is full of colorful historic Victorian homes flanked by stone sidewalks and beautiful flower gardens.<\/p>\n

10. It\u2019s Very Dog-Friendly<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nWhile the city\u2019s not going to the dogs anytime soon, dog owners can take their furry companions everywhere from parks and trails, to outdoor cafes. You have five different off-leash dog parks to choose from. One of the best is the East Boulder Community Park on Sioux Drive. Your pet pal can go for a swim in the pond and there\u2019s separate play areas for small dogs.<\/p>\n

11. Life\u2019s A Breeze In Boulder<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nBoulder is nestled in a small valley tucked into the edge of the Rockies. Cool mountain breezes off the foothills keep the city from ever getting too hot in the summer, and winter weather doesn\u2019t start until late; sometimes not until January.<\/p>\n

12. Stay Out Of The Line Of Fire<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nWhile you may be tempted by their beauty, don\u2019t move too close to the foothills, which are subject to wildfires from time to time. They may be gorgeous, but you can still see them through your window from a safe distance and keep your house out of the line of fire. Literally.<\/p>\n

13. You\u2019ve Gotta Have A Snow Blower From McGuckin\u2019s<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nSnowfall averages more than 80 inches per season\u2014that\u2019s a lot of shovelfuls. Do yourself a favor and invest in a snow blower\u2014you\u2019ll thank me. You can get them at McGuckin Hardware. This is the most beloved hardware store in town and it\u2019s every retired guy\u2019s dream to work in this place.<\/p>\n

14. Blazing The Trail For Future Industries<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nBeing that Colorado was one of the first states to legalize medical marijuana, it\u2019s no surprise that Boulder has about 28 dispensaries in its 25.68 square miles. With the state\u2019s recent legalization of recreational pot and a push toward regulating, taxing, and distributing marijuana to adults, there\u2019s even more potential for budding entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n

15. Alternative Health And Healing Is Huge In Boulder<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nThere are numerous holistic health centers, alternative healing practitioners, and spiritual healers in Boulder. As one friend who is a Shaman and Reiki Master says, \u201cThe market is saturated here.\u201d Check out Alexander Love for holistic healing, natural medicine, acupuncture and more.<\/p>\n

16. It\u2019s Not Just Any College Town<\/h2>\n

\nIf you are a Boulder resident, you have lots of open classes and events available at CU-Boulder including science, music, concerts, guest lectures and more.<\/p>\n

\"29

\nWith so many restaurants focused on locally grown foods, there are numerous choices for vegans and vegetarians. Leaf Vegetarian Restaurant has raw, vegan and gluten-free options as well. Try the gnocchi, and the raw chocolate \u201ccheesecake\u201d is to die for.<\/p>\n

20. There\u2019s Something Going On Every Day Of The Week<\/h2>\n

\nBig Head Todd and The Monsters got their start more than 20 years ago in Boulder. These CU alums and hometown heroes have produced billboard hits like \u201cSister Sweetly\u201d and \u201cBeautiful World.\u201d They hold a special place in the hearts of Colorado fans, and they love coming back to play at home. And we like it too!<\/p>\n

22. Estes Park Offers Year-Round Adventure For All Levels<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nJust 45 minutes away (and worth the drive), Estes Park is located in the town of Estes. This Rocky Mountains National Park has something for everyone. You can stroll along Lily Lake, do a car tour of wildlife, or walk the Knoll Path for amazing views of downtown Estes. In the winter try your foot at snowshoeing or for the really adventurous, ice climbing.<\/p>\n

23. Turley\u2019s Kitchen Is Where You Go To Eat Breakfast<\/h2>\n

\"29

\nIt\u2019s a perfect stop on your way to Estes Park and the gorgeous Rocky Mountains. The eggs benedict is amazing or try their veggie benedict. For something totally different order their smoked wild salmon hash. Don\u2019t miss the chai\u2014it\u2019s super delicious.<\/p>\n

24. 110 Miles Of Walking And Hiking Trails<\/h2>\n

\"29

\"29

Source: Wikimedia user Tyree303<\/p><\/div>
\nIt\u2019s easier to get around by bike than car and bike lanes are aplenty. Just about everyone in Boulder rides a bike, and if you don\u2019t have a bike, that\u2019s OK, you can pick one up from any Boulder B-cycle bike-sharing station.<\/p>\n

26. You Can\u2019t Live In Colorado Without Skiing<\/h2>\n

\"29

Source: Flickr user Rob Lee<\/p><\/div>
\nBoulder is an easy hour-and-a-half drive to top ski areas such as Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper Mountain, and Arapahoe Basin. While my favorite is Breckenridge, you can stay local and visit Eldora Mountain at the top of Boulder Canyon if you don’t want to drive out of town.<\/p>\n

27. Need A Beach?<\/h2>\n

\"29

Source: Flickr user Lee Edwin Coursey<\/p><\/div>
\nYep, you are giving up the coast for the mountains here, but if you crave the feeling of the sand between your toes, go for a swim at the Boulder Reservoir. It\u2019s a great place for boating, swimming, sunbathing, water skiing, and fishing.<\/p>\n

28. Recycling Is A Religion<\/h2>\n

\"29

Source: Flickr user emerson12<\/p><\/div>
\nFor every trash can in Boulder there are at least three recycle bins. Boulderites take their carbon footprint seriously. In fact, Boulder is on its way to becoming the \u201cmost green city worldwide\u201d by 2020.<\/p>\n

29. Small Town Feel With Big City Arts And Culture<\/h2>\n

\"29
