Central City, Colorado is situated conveniently one mile (or less) above Black Hawk, Colorado, so if you are visiting one of these towns, you should definitely visit the other. Central City casinos really started it off with a bang when the first poker tables and slot machines rolled into town. It had more casinos than Black Hawk did, too.

However time wore on and Black Hawk casinos soon expanded into their full town limits and with more and larger megalithic casinos moving into Blackhawk many gamblers stopped traveling the extra mile to Central City casinos and stopped in Black Hawk to gamble instead. This really hurt Central City casinos and many closed.

A new Central City emerged from this. A very quaint old west, not quite abandonded gambling hideaway. If you want a get-away from the fast pace and crowds of Black Hawk with friendly faces and open spots at the blackjack table, Central City is just for you. Central City comes complete with historic Victorian buildings, old time candy store, many museums and historic monuments. To top it off, Fortune Valley Hotel & Casino is here for those who just can't stand being away from the "monster" casinos. Fortune Valley Hotel & Casino started off as Harveys Wagon Wheel and was the largest hotel and casino inColorado.
