Recreation park in Calico with many mining related attractions with a short hike

Calico is an old mining town founded in 1881 and abandoned in 1898. Several silver mines were exploited in the vicinity during this period. It was the collapse of the price of the ore that caused the bankruptcy of the town. Calico was purchased in 1950 by Walter Knott, a farmer from the San Bernardino area, who restored most of the site to its original condition before bequeathing it to the county. Still managed by San Bernardino County, Calico has become a recreational park with many mining-related attractions.

Calico is a reconstructed ghost town but the decor is very authentic making " very; rush to the or". There is a restaurant where the hull of peanuts must be accompanied by land and not on the table (it is a tradition!). Many small shops with crafts.

Une ville fantôme bien restaurée. On y découvre des habitations typiques de l'époque de la ruée vers l'or. Il y a d'ailleurs un atelier chercheur d'or pour les enfants. En revanche, la tarif est prohibitif et la ville nous a semblé trop touristique. Il y en a de plus authentiques dans la région.

Ville fantôme des anciens pionniers en plein désert où tout y est resté intact ou presque.
