You won't find big chain superstores or fast food restaurants in Virginia City. Instead you will find streets steeped in the history of the Gold Rush and the birth of the American West. The once silver and gold lined Comstock Lode drew thousands of miners, including American writer Mark Twain, to its promise of riches. Now the town preserves its illustrious past with tours, restored historical architecture, informative museums and commemorative events for all ages.

It was recommended that we stop in at the Bucket of Blood and I am so glad we did. The bartender was very nice and made a great drink. We visited during the off season so it was rather quiet. The view is amazing and free popcorn too! It is a definite stop for everyone.
