Park City, Utah has been crowned the best-preserved mining town in the West. After the discovery of silver in 1868, this small mining camp grew into a town of miners, gamblers, merchants, saloon keepers and ladies of the evening. After the city's 1884 incorporation, mining flourished until the 1930s and gradually declined into the 1960s. 

 

Park City Mountain Resort saved the city from almost ghost town status. The resort is now connected to Main Street by its Town Lift offering easy access to the slopes and Main Street with its boutiques, art galleries, restaurants and bars.

Old Town encompasses most of the area from Park City Mountain Resort to the Park City Municipal Golf Course and past the charmingly City Park. Largely as a result of historical preservation, Old Town has retained its small, old-western mining town charm. However, some upscale condominiums such as the Sky Lodge, the Caledonian and Marsac Mill Manor compliment beautifully restored historic homes. Park City is known for its art scene, top of the line restaurants and greatest snow on Earth.
