Continue to your next destinations, in Utah; Salt Lake City, and in Nevada State; The Great Basin (known for its spectacular high elevations and mountain terrain and caves) and Reno (“the biggest little city in the world,” is famous for its casinos, and is the birthplace of the gaming corporation, Harrah's Entertainment). Finally, drive to The Golden State and enjoy Sacramento (the capital of California, is known for its evolving contemporary culture, rich history and golden rush past).
