The State of Nevada

The State of Nevada is divided into five territories. Each of these territories has some spectacular Nevada tourist attractions. It’s quite possible to plan your Nevada vacation around the types of things that interest you. For example, the Reno/Tahoe territory has many historic Nevada tourist attractions. Cowboy Country is defined by Nevada’s Humboldt River. This area is one of the last remaining outposts of the true American West. The Pony Express Territory is situated along Highway 50, which was the original Pony Express route. While you are there, be sure to take a ride on the Ghost Train of Old Ely. If you travel West on Highway 50, you will eventually come to the Grimes Point Archaeological Site. Here you will find trails lined with fascinating petroglyphs and rock drawings which were made by natives who inhabited the area between 5000 B.C. and 1500 A.D.
