GOLDFIELD
Although
quite authentic, Goldfield is a replica of a
late 1800's desert gold mining town. You
can explore the buildings and relics of the era
that are on display, ride the train, have a meal
in the restaurant, and shop for souvenirs.

JEROME
This is a copper, silver, and gold mining town

in 1920, but dwindled away after the stock
market crash in 1929. Today, it has
numerous quaint shops, museums, and historic
sites for exploration, including the Jerome
State Historic Park above the Little Daisy Mine.
