Mesa Verde Colorado

Mesa Verde National Park, established in 1906 in the Four Corners region of southwestern Colorado, is the only national park in the United States dedicated primarily to preserving the works of people rather than nature — specifically the extraordinary cliff dwellings built by the Ancestral Puebloan people between 600 and 1300 CE. Cliff Palace, the largest cliff dwelling in North America with 150 rooms and 23 kivas, clings to a sandstone alcove above Chapin Mesa with breathtaking precision and beauty. The park’s 5,000 known archaeological sites tell the story of a sophisticated civilization that flourished for seven centuries before mysteriously departing.

U.S. national parks are frequently referred to as America’s Best Idea. Other common nicknames highlighting their value include National Treasures, Jewels in the Crown and collectively as the Natural Heritage or Crown Jewels of the nation.

All "parks" are not the same, with over 25 different designations beyond just "National Park". These include National Monuments, Historic Sites, National Recreation Areas, National Lakeshores/Seashores, and National Preserves, focusing on natural preservation, historical preservation, and recreational water access. The titles included in our U.S. National ParkStamps™ Collection cover all of these designations.
