    Today we find ourselves in Manitou Springs, Colorado to check out the "Manitou Cliff Dwellings" Now this "tourist trap" has a strange history, and I TRY to do my best to give it context. Let me know how you feel about these "Dwellings" being "real or fake"

    Amazing job! Because the 'Cliff Dwelling Reproduction' looks a lot like the ruins in Mesa Verde! The Anasazi lived all over the high plains areas of eastern CO and NM into the OK and TX panhandles and W. KS... They suddenly migrated to the mountains and built highly defensive cliff dwellings! Which the local tribes (Pueblo Indians) claimed when the Anasazi disappeared...

    Thank you for giving the facts. I was just there and didn’t know that! Like you, I still had an amazing time! But it is something they should make more clear!

    I did some research after going and I was a little disappointed, but this has sparked an interest of this history nonetheless.

    Great production, good job capturing the beauty into a learning and entertaining tour. How much time would you recommend for a quick visit excluding rests and shopping time?

      It’s been a few years since I’ve been there, but I would say you could do the actual buildings in an hour or so. Then there is a shop and a small museum to see as well. Thanks for watching!

    I used to live in COS. Great city, I miss it. Two of my daughters born there. Never visited the Cliff Dwellings and regret not going. Yeah, you can say it's a tourist trap, but I have to applaud the effort, class level, and history of the place. It is educational and very well done. I recall visiting Mesa Verde NP when I was a kid in the 1970s. We were allowed into the dwellings and could experience them inside and out. My understanding is that's no longer allowed. Well, in Manitou you can experience that. From this video I would give the place an A+. It's definitely elevated above just a tourist trap. The display of the historic post cards of the place alone is worth the price of entry. That's really cool if you're into that kind of nostalgic stuff (I happen to love it). Anyhoo, thanks so much Mike for creating the video, very enjoyable. And yes, the views when you get up around Manitou and the pass are amazing. What a beautiful area.

      You could do it in about an hour maybe a little bit longer. Thanks so much for watching!

    Thanks for letting everyone know that this is a tourist trap. We were petty disappointed when we went a few years ago, it's advertised as "authentic" and there's only a few instances where they let you know they're fake, we were most of the way through it when we found out it wasn't real.

      I mean, it's the original pieces. Just not the original build.

    Yep, they were moved there from a actual cliff dwelling which is a shame. And no they don't tell you anything about that. A total scam
