Tombstone, Arizona

Tombstone was established in 1887 and evolved into a mining town with 7,000 and 9,000 people. Sadly, this population dropped to about 150 people by the time the 1930s rolled around.

Nowadays, you can consider this US place more of an Old West theme park, where the “Town Too Tough to Die” brings its past back to life on Allen Street. In the southern part of Arizona’s Cochise County, historic Tombstone continuously clutches on to its Wild West roots.

It brings history to life with actors in period attire, daily re-creations, and landmarks perfectly preserved. It’s so authentic that you can’t help but play along and enjoy it.

While at this historic US place, you can expect to see The Crystal Palace Saloon, which remains an accurate portrait of the Wild West with an ornate wooden bar and copper ceilings.

You can even see some other original buildings that still have bullet holes in them from gunfights, which are reenacted daily.
