Описание к видео Tour of Historic BISBEE, ARIZONA | Queen Mine, Mining Historic Museum, Inn at Castle Rock & MORE!

The town of Bisbee, Arizona has such a rich history of mining, but what is it like today? We take a quick trip through this small town to see where history and modern-day collide.


Bisbee, Arizona came on the map around 1877 when U.S. army scouts were searching for a group of Apache in the area. What they stumbled upon was water and indications of rich minerals in the hills of the area.

What followed was prospectors coming to stake out claims and soon Bisbee was known as the "Queen of the Copper Camps." Millions of gold and copper, along with silver, lead, and zinc, were pulled from the ground and Bisbee flourished.

The Queen Mine remains open to visitors providing tours 1500 feet deep into its mine tunnels offering a unique experience into what mining was like and involved during its height.

For even more insight into mining and life for citizens in Bisbee Arizona during the late 1800s and early 1900s, the Bisbee Mining & Historical Museum provides numerous displays, artifacts, and exhibits. The Smithsonian-affiliated museum resides in one of the oldest buildings in Bisbee if the exhibits weren't enough history for you.

And for those wanting to immerse themselves where the history began, the Inn at Castle Rock (https://www.theinnatcastlerock.com/) has 14 uniquely themed rooms available for visitors to the town of Bisbee. Within the inn is a well rumored to be the site where mining into the rock for the rich minerals began. This quirky inn offers plenty of hospitality and old charm for guests.

Outside of history, Bisbee is a town with a thriving art community with plenty of shopping and dining. You really can find it all in Bisbee!
