f you've been on enough family trips to mock Old West towns, you've come to realize that there also has been something missing, something as intrinsic to the Wild-West mythos as high-noon showdowns and steel-eyed lawmen–the brothel. The Julia C. Bulette Red Light Museum fills this void with photographs, dioramas, and other exhibits detailing the life of Ms. Bulette and her Virginia City brothel.

Julia Bullette, was a favored soiled dove of 1860s Virginia City. The museum also has some interesting, shall we say, artifacts, including a lipstick tube condom case and an antique vibrator. There are also 19th-century medical implements and poison arrows on display. An interesting museum, but maybe you should leave the kids at the "Bucket of Blood Saloon" down the street . . . [Note: Old-West enthusiasts should visit in July for the National Fast Draw Championship.]
