The Governor's Mansion
Treat yourself to a wonderful experience and make some plans to have the charter bus bring you over so that you can visit the Governor's Mansion. This wonderful structure is one of the more popular gems in Carson City, being the delight to all of those who get the chance to view it. A major reason why so many people make it a point to stop by and see the Governor's Mansion is because it is quite a lovely architectural specimen to behold.
History shows that the Governor's Mansion was built way back in the years 1908 and 1909, over 40 years after Nevada actually became one of the states of this nation. Did you know that the wonderful piece of land that the Governor's Mansion was built on was actually purchased for only $10 many years ago? Once you see the Mansion along with the land that it sits on, you will be sure to see just what a wonderful deal that was!
Although several other buildings have been added to the grounds around the Governor's Mansion, the main focal point is still the main house itself. The style of architectures is what is known to be classical revival, and was designed by an architect from Reno, named George A. Ferris. One of the most breathtaking features of this beautiful Mansion is the lovely wrap around porch on the front of the second story. You may just want to bring your camera along with you so that you may take a bunch of pictures of this wonderful building to remind you of your charter bus tour.
