"Monarch’s celestial dining room, awash in pale blues and scalloped edges, seats up to 125. Traditional Chinese banquet hall aesthetics, along with a fascination with deities and a personal theory that butterflies can float between worlds, influenced Monarch’s interior design. While the ceiling’s ornate lighting fixtures and robust columns give the space the feel of a formal Chinese restaurant, Monarch’s wallpaper, dinnerware, and artwork — which includes a waterfall mosaic made of hand-painted glass beads by artist Charlie Mai — are thoroughly contemporary." - Farley Elliott

We stopped here to use the restrooms at the restaurant/gift shop and spend a few minutes, enjoying the view out across. We did not do the tram ride, but that did look interesting. Beautiful views across the valley.

Was Hiking the CDT and we stopped here. Beautiful views they have a gondola that goes up to the top if the mountain. Its open seasonally so just double check it's open before you go. Either way its a beautiful place to explore. Definitely check it out. Was cool to be on the east and west coast at the same time.

What does one say . . . beautiful but terrifying drive. I don't why Google maps sent me that way to get home from Moab (home is flat, flat, FLAT Houston TX), but I didn't die. Ugly cried in relief when I got to the visitor center which had clean restrooms and a kind ranger.

Amazing view from the top of continental divide. You can see a lot of 14ers from up there. The cable car ride was well worth the 15 dollars. Do visit this place.

Great spot to hangout! Awesome store. Lots to do. Bring your bicycle, and or motorcycle and hit the crest.

If you're in this area of Colorado, it's a great place to visit the Continental Divide. Spectacular views of the Rockies.

Did not know this place existed so we stopped and rode the tram and had a great lunch. Loved it even though we were in the clouds and could not see the views.

They have a nice little gift shop. Beautiful views all around while driving towards it. We got to see the beautiful view of snow capped mountain in September at the monarch pass.
