2 Best Sights in The Far North, California

Immerse yourself in all things Chico at this small but engaging museum near Chico State University. Past exhibits have surveyed the city's American Indian legacy, its former Chinatowns, and area movers and shakers.

For a vivid sense of Weaverville's past, visit this outdoor park of old mining equipment, and step inside the adjacent Jake Jackson Memorial Museum. A blacksmith shop and a stamp mill (where ore is crushed) from the 1890s are still in use during certain community events.
