Virginia City--Nevada's most cherished historical shrine. In the early days of the State's settlement, Virginia City boasted a population of over 30,000, and was the scene of one of the greatest and most exciting mining camps in the world. Bonanzas were struck and developed; men became wealthy beyond dreams over night with the discovery of the famous Comstock Lode.
