  • Exploration To Go takes you on a walking tour through Downtown Virginia City, Nevada USA in stunning 4K UHD at 60 fps with relaxing jazz / modern / easy listening / instrumental music in the background for listening pleasure. Virginia City is a small town located in Storey County of north western Nevada, in between Reno and the state capital Carson City. It is part of the Reno-Sparks Metropolitan area.
    Like many other cities and towns in California and Nevada in the mid-1800's, Virginia City was a mining town, where miners migrated westerward to seek riches in mining silver and gold. Founded in 1859, Virginia City's population grew overnight with the discovery of the Comstock Lode, named after Henry T. P. Comstock which is a lode of silver ore under the eastern slope of Mount Davidson.
    Today, the town's economy is now based on tourism with many residents who live there own and work at the shops. The city is currently a National Historic Landmark District, drawing more than 2 million visitors per year.

    The Red Dog Saloon has a great 1960s rock and roll history and the Silver Stope used to be a major jazz club until the owners raised the rent so high the restaurant owners and musicians had to leave. I lived in VC during the late 80s and early 90s. Still love the place.

      Slab City. It's fascinating, as are the residents. All they ask when visiting is to treat the residents with respect as it is their home. Many are happy to talk if shown due respect.

    I was there in the mid-70s. I had picked up some gold bearing tailings from a mine just outside town, so I took them to an assayer in town. He told me that it would cost more to extract the gold from the ore than it was worth. I’ll bet that’s not the case today! I’d love to revisit the town. It appears to have changed considerably since then.

    The comment at 17:07 is wrong. The map itself is not wrong. The top of the (printed) map is oriented toward West, versus the setup of the map (on the boardwalk) is faced to the EAST. The right side of the map indicates "To Reno" (north), which is correct in relation to everything else on the map - it's just with the map 'flipped', that actual direction on the street, in the video, is to the left (still North).

    They should’ve just kept the roads unpaved in certain areas and laid cobblestones around the walkways, and where the main road runs, they could’ve set up cable cars like the ones in SF, and also conduct horse buggy tours. The buildings are in dire need of maintenance and reconstruction. If these could be accomplished, then Virginia City would definitely look like a historic town that takes you back in time. 👍
