When Nevada became the 36th state in 1864 during the American Civil War (1861-1865), Carson City was confirmed as Nevada's permanent state capital. Carson City's development was no longer dependent on the mining industry and instead became a thriving commercial center.
The Virginia and Truckee Railroad was built between Virginia City and Carson City. A log flume was also built from the Sierra Nevada mountains range into Carson City. The current Nevada State Capitol building was constructed from 1869 to 1871. The United States Mint also operated its branch of the Carson City Mint between the years of 1870 and 1893, which struck gold and silver coins of United States currency.
The Nevada State Museum in Carson City features exhibits on Nevada's mining history, including a replicated mining town and an underground mine tour. The museum is housed in the former Carson City Mint and is one of seven Nevada State Museums operated by the Nevada Department of Tourism and Cultural Affairs.

My Son Sanctuary, also known as Mỹ Sơn, stands as one of Vietnam’s most remarkable ancient sites and a powerful testament to the Champa Kingdom. Nestled in a serene, jungle-covered valley surrounded by mountains in Duy Xuyen District, Quang Nam Province, central Vietnam, the sanctuary lies roughly 40–50 kilometers southwest of the historic town of Hoi An and about 70 kilometers from Da Nang.
The Thu Bon River flows nearby, enhancing the site’s natural beauty and symbolic significance, as the valley was chosen to represent the mythical Mount Meru, the sacred center of the Hindu universe.
The history of My Son begins in the 4th century, when King Bhadravarman I established the first temples around 380–413 as a sacred religious center dedicated primarily to the Hindu god Shiva, worshipped here under the name Bhadreshvara.
Early structures were made of wood, but after a devastating fire in the 6th century, later kings rebuilt them using durable red brick, a hallmark of Champa architecture. Over the ...
Han Market (Chợ Hàn) stands as one of the oldest and most iconic traditional markets in Da Nang, serving as a bustling commercial hub right in the heart of the city along the west bank of the Han River. Its name comes directly from its prime location beside the Han River, and it has long symbolized the growth of Da Nang’s trade and daily life.
The market traces its roots to the 1940s when locals began gathering spontaneously along the river to exchange agricultural products, fresh seafood, and everyday essentials in an informal setting. During the French colonial era, when Da Nang was known as Tourane, the area gained more structure with the addition of infrastructure like a railway system called Tourane Marché for transporting goods and surrounding shophouses run by Chinese and Vietnamese merchants. Some historical references suggest trading activity near the river as far back as the 17th century, but reliable accounts point to the 1940s as the start of its modern form.
The market was ...
