Traveling west on Charleston Blvd.,
about 40-minute drive from downtown Las Vegas adventurous spectators will find Bonnie
Springs Old Nevada, a western theme park.
The Wild West awakes daily with gunfights and hangings staged
in the main street. Adding to the authentic western motif, they treat visitors to silent
movies, an opera house, museums, a cemetery and a mini train running throughout the
grounds. Experience the Wild West as it really happened.

Bonnie Springs Ranch,
originally built in 1843 as a stopover for the wagon trains going to California down the
Old Spanish Trail, has become a great tourist attraction.
In 1846 General Fremont, on his way to California, stopped at what is now
Bonnie Springs Ranch. |
For over 50-years, (1952) the ranch has been used exclusively as a tourist
attraction. Many refer to Bonnie Springs as "an oasis in the desert",
where stopping for a cool drink of spring water has become a local tradition.
