Its National Historic District encompasses both a lovely residential section and charming commercial district, offering a glimpse into the late 1800s. The Golden City boasts over 75 structures from the 1800s and early 1900s, wrought by the founders of Siskiyou Countys gold, agricultural, and timber industries and preserved by Yrekas community today.
