Reno/Virginia City

I am going to Reno in July. My brother says I should go to Virginia City.

Has anybody ever been to Reno or Virginia City? Any recommendations on where I should go, what I should see?

Oh I have been to both.. They are both very nice.. Reno has mountains that surround the city along with Casinos.. If you go to Reno rent a car & drive up to Lake Tahoe.. The town & the lake itself is so Breathtaken.. Now Virgina City is nice sight seeing too.. I myself would go back to Reno/Lake Tahoe in a heartbeat..

Oops...I'm also going to Lake Tahoe too. I forgot to mention that. I think I will be going to Virginia City and going into a mine. I think it will be cool.

Thanks for replying.

I am only a few hours from reno and lake tahoe, I haven't been to the reno area too much but I love Tahoe. There is a lot to do either outdoors or at the casinos.

Virgina city is a very fun place

but since Ive lived here so long I guess the "tourist trap" feel to the place drives me off. Tahoe is fun of course, but just as close is Pyramid Lake and Washoe Lake, two good places to visit if you love looking at wildlife. Also, investegate websites about ghost towns and ruins, there are alot of historic sites around this area that arent exactly publicised but are really NEAT to see!

When you come (or right before) pm me and I'll give you my phone number, Id love to show you around the area!
