I love the way Victor makes me feel like I traveled back in time. The incredible 1899 buildings are like historic photos that have come to life. The mining structures from the gold rush era loom right over downtown. Art and relics stir creativity everywhere. Add the mountain view backdrop, sunshine, blue skies, year-round hiking trails and Victor is just magical! - Jon Zalewski, Victor Main Street Manager
