Central City
Located at just 35 miles west of Denver, Central City is situated in the Rocky Mountains. It is known as the Richest Square Mile on Earth. The city is a Home Rule Municipality in Clear Creek and Gilpin counties in Colorado, USA.

Featuring six casinos, Central Citys two most popular destinations or attractions are known as the Teller House and the Central City Opera House. Central City ranks among the most historic, yet entertaining cities of Colorado.

The discovery of The Gregory Lode was made by John Gregory in 1859, in a ravine which was in a close proximity to the Central City. Soon, the gold rush was on, and within sixty days or so, the population grew to 10,000 people in search of their riches.

Once the tents of William Byers and his few companions were pitched on open ground, directly in the middle of the mining district, the Central City was born. It soon became the primary mining center in Colorado, and earned a status as The Richest Square Mile on Earth.

One of the Citys main attractions was built in 1872, and was called The Teller House Hotel. However, the city had to face a big disaster caused by a breakout of fire in 1874. All the city buildings got burnt down to ashes. Thus, the town was re-built with bricks and stones.

Most of the buildings built during that time still stand today. The second most prominent attraction of the Central City opened in 1878, known as the Opera House. The culture of community theatre began from there onwards, which ranged from vaudeville to opera.
