The 5 Best Things to do Good for Big Groups in Virginia City, Nevada (NV)
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.

This is great place to see some local history and get a feel for the spirit world. Although I didn't come into contact with any ghosts it was a great look out point.
