Overview

Explore Nelson Ghost Town, a historic, abandoned gold mining town in Eldorado Canyon, Nevada. Known for its rustic scenery, old mining equipment, vintage cars, and movie props, it's a popular spot for photography, history buffs, and day trips from Las Vegas.

Explore the grounds, take guided tours of the Techatticup Mine, and see relics from its rough-and-tumble past, which includes a history of lawlessness and a boom from the gold rush era.

Visit the Techatticup Mine, the oldest and richest gold mine in Southern Nevada, and take a guided tour that delves into the area's history. See the site that has been a filming location for movies like 3,000 Miles to Graceland, featuring a crashed airplane and other props.

Admire the grounds, which are scattered with antique cars, mining equipment, and other curiosities. Take photos of the unique, weathered landscape and artifacts that provide a popular backdrop for photos.
