AZ | Goldfield Ghost Town - A Gold Mining Town
๐๐Just a half-hour drive from the city, itโs perfect for a weekend outing. No entry or parking fees, but there are three paid tours. We went for all of them and recommend the mine tour and the mystery shack. The mine tour takes you down into the old underground mining shafts and explains how mining was done in the past. Itโs quite immersive. ๐๐The mystery shack is a house that plays with visual illusions, giving you a sense of wonky gravity. Both are pretty interesting. The whole town is just one street, and with the tours, two hours should be enough. They close at 5 PM every day, so make sure to go early. ๐๐Turns out, September in AZ is still not suitable for outdoor activities. Walking around, I felt like a pig on a grill, just melting from the heat. #Arizona #WeekendOuting #DayTrip #WhereToGo #LocalGetaways
