Carson City is the capital city of Nevada. In its center, the 19th-century Nevada State Capitol Building features a grand silver cupola. Housed in the former Carson City Mint, the Nevada State Museum features an underground mine, a mammoth skeleton and an 1800s coin press. Nearby, the Children's Museum of Northern Nevada offers science and art activities. The Nevada State Railroad Museum displays vintage trains.

The Kit Carson Trail is a walking path through Carson City’s historic district.  It features stops at landmarks including 1800s-era Victorian-style homes, museums and churches. More than 60 landmarks telling the story of the capital city’s history are featured along the Kit Carson trail.

Museums: Carson City boast multiple museums that showcases an impressive collection of the stories and the artifacts from a history that spans not just through northern Nevada, but across the country. Whether you are into learning about Native American culture, trains, geology,  the wild life, or wild frontier living, the museum of Carson City will not disappoint.

The railroad: Following the discovery of rich silver and gold deposits in Virginia City, it soon became apparent that something beside freight wagons was needed to carry heavy ore from the mines to the mills along the Carson River for refining. Additionally, a better transportation system was needed to bring lumber from the Lake Tahoe region to Virginia City, where it could be used to timber the underground mines and feed the mining furnaces.  To address these needs, William Sharon and his Bank of California partners incorporated the Virginia and Truckee Railroad Company in March 1868. The plan was to build the railway between Virginia City and the Carson River (near present day Mound House) and extend it later to Carson City and Reno. Work began in February 1869 and by early the following year regular train service was established between Virginia City and Carson City.
