Sandon is a ghost town located in the Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia, Canada. Once known as the "Silver Capital of Canada," this historic mining town flourished in the late 19th century during the silver boom. At its peak in the 1890s, Sandon was home to over 5,000 residents and boasted numerous businesses, hotels, and one of British Columbia's first hydroelectric power plants.
The town's rich mining heritage is reflected in its remaining historic buildings and artifacts. Today, Sandon serves as an open-air museum, offering visitors a glimpse into British Columbia's mining past and the boom-and-bust cycle of resource-based communities. The site preserves several historic structures and mining-related artifacts, making it an important destination for those interested in Canadian industrial heritage and the history of the province's silver mining industry.
