Below ground or above, Old Sacramento Historic Park comes alive in re-creating the past for present-day visitors. New Gold Rush Experience tours began in March and the tried-and-true Sacramento Underground tour resumes Saturday-Sunday, April 2-3. The tours show off the now-below-grade streets and store fronts as well as artifacts. For times, dates and availability, see the Sacramento History Museum’s website. All tours check in at the museum, 101 I St., Sacramento. $10-$20. 916-808-7059
