Elko City Park

The Elko City Park is one of Elko's treasures.  The Museum and Chamber of Commerce are located within its boundaries.  The city park is the former site of the China Ranch.  After completion of the transcontinental railroad in May 1869, thousands of Chineserailroad employees were discharged and sought refuge in small western boom towns.  In Elko, they planted vegetable gardens which came to be known as the China Ranch.  Produce was sold to local businesses and area mines.  The gardens were fed by two reservoirs in the hills north of the park near Elko Junior High School and the large American flag that presently flies over the city.
