As the saying goes, big things come in small packages.

While big cities have an abundance of attractions, entertainment venues and restaurants compared to their less-populated counterparts, small towns allow visitors a chance to better see the heart of what makes the town so special and often offer some truly unique experiences you won't find anywhere else.

Travel Curator compiled a list of 35 of the "best and coolest small towns" in the U.S., the small-but-mighty destinations worth visiting that are sure to make a trip just as memorable as a bigger city. Among the list of locales like stunning California hideaways, charming country towns in Texas and sunny cities in Florida are two spots in Colorado.

According to the site, Telluride, praised for its scenic views, and Breckenridge, for its "buzzing" arts scene, are some of the best small towns in the entire country. Here's what the site had to say about these cool spots:

"Most people know this as a big ski/snowboard spot in winter, but visiting during the warmer months, there's still plenty to see and do. See the splendor of the San Juan Mountains in Telluride, Colorado, a small mountain town known for its year-round outdoor adventures, breathtaking scenery, and active arts scene. With endless miles of hiking trails, waterfalls, scenic views at every turn, fly fishing, golf, an incredible food scene, you'll need a second trip to fit it all in."
"Enjoy the stunning views of the Tenmile Range and the buzzing arts and culture scene in the small mountain town of Breckenridge, Colorado, with plenty of outdoor activities coupled with a quite charming atmosphere."
