The Chateaux at Silver Lake - (Page 14) Park City Long before Park City became a world class mountain resort destination and venue for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games, it was famous as a silver mining town and boasts a lovely and colorful past. Founded by prospectors in 1869, Park City continued to mine silver until the 1970’s. Now home to three world class mountain resorts, Park City has become known as a year round destination, famous not only for its winter sports, but for its special events, arts and culture. For example, Historic Main Street offers a surprising range of galleries — something you can easily experience during our frequent Arts & Eats Gallery Strolls. You can also enjoy performances year-round at the Mary G. Steiner Egyptian Theatre and the Eccles Center for the Performing Arts. And everyone knows Park City is a mecca for independent film lovers, featuring the Sundance Film Festival.
