Established in the mid-1800s with the discovery of silver\, Virginia City became a mining “boomtown” influencing prosperity and culture. While the Great Fire of 1875 destroyed much of the original town\, it was rebuilt to even greater opulence which can be experienced today and sparked preservation throughout the decades. Just 30 minutes outside of Reno\, its unique\, rich and colorful streets attract tourists from across the globe to experience the hearts of gold\, veins of silver and lodes of fun in every historic building\, saloon\, museum and memorable event. For more information\, visit visitvirginiacitynv.com or follow them on Facebook\, Instagram and Twitter.
