With the Yuba Sutter area being rooted in story and heritage, there are several impressive museums that are sure to inspire and spark curiosity in visitors of all ages.

Bok Kai Temple Museum is bringing almost 200 years of history back to life! Working with California State University of San Jose’s Department of Anthropology, graduate students have assisted with identifying over 250 artifacts that date as far back as the 19th Century during the early colonization of Chinese immigrants in Marysville. The museum is a project started by the Marysville Chinese Community whose vision has been to construct a public museum of artifacts located inside the historical Bok Kai Temple. The grand opening of the museum happened in Spring 2020 and it is now open to the public.

Chinese American Museum of Northern California was founded in 2005 in the historical Marysville Chinatown. The building where the museum is housed is an original gold rush building built in 1858. It is located at the intersection of 1st and C Streets where the Chinese have fired the bombs for the Bok Kai Festival for over 150 years. The focus of the museum has been to keep the history and contributions of Chinese Americans alive. The Chinese built over thirty Chinatowns in California during the 1800s. Almost all have been destroyed or abandoned. The Marysville Chinatown is the last Chinatown of the gold rush era. It still has an active temple, Chinese school building, three Chinese associations, and a traditional Chinese festival.

During a critical flooding period in Marysville, the temple was built with reverence towards Bok Eye, a Chinese god of water, who is the central deity of the Bok Kai. During times of high water, prayers are held to spare the City of Marysville, and—interestingly—Marysville Landmarks hasn’t flooded since 1875. California’s oldest running parade is the Bok Kai parade which happens in Marysville each spring. Tours of the temple are available only by special arrangement.

Fremont Historic Marker is named for the efforts of John Fremont who, directed and outfitted by the U.S. government, established a major camp at the base of the Sutter Buttes where he helped the United States secure California ahead of the aspirations of the English, Russians and French. An attack in 1846 against Mexico’s Northern Regional Headquarters at Sonoma (facilitated in part by Fremont) encouraged the United States to bring more troops into California and block the intrigue of the Europeans. California became a state four years later. The Fremont Historic Marker is located on Pass Road near Sutter approximately Bok Kai Temple 1.5 miles west of Butte House Road.

Smartsville & Timbuctoo are Historic Markers #320 and #321, and are also historical gold rush towns. In 1855, Timbuctoo was the largest of Yuba County’s mining towns with a church, theater, stores, hotels, saloons, a Wells Fargo office, and a Steward Brothers store which was restored and dedicated in 1928. The historic plaque is located on Hwy 20 on Timbuctoo Rd (one mile west of Smartsville). The first building at Smartsville was built in the spring of 1856 by Historical Sutter County Courthouse James Smart, a hotel proprietor during the gold rush days. The U.S. Post Office officially named the town Smartville, creating a long running debate; Smartville or Masonic Temple was termed the “finest building of its kind in the state” when Smartsville?

On June 21, 1865, a vagrant ex-soldier who had been staying at the Hock Farm burned it to the ground. Defeated in California, Sutter moved East in a futile attempt to convince the United States government to restore the lands taken from him when the U.S. canceled all land grants under the previous Mexican government.

The Sutter Buttes are famously known as the World’s Smallest Mountain Range. They’ve had many names dating back to the early 1800s: Los Tres Picos (Spanish explorers), Sacramento Buttes (John Fremont), and Marysville Buttes. In 1949, the mountain range was officially christened the Sutter Buttes. By any name, they are a unique and significant landmark and icon. Formed by unusual volcanic up-thrust that ceased about 1.5 million years ago, the Sutter Buttes are circular in shape, 10 miles wide and cover 75 square miles. The highest of the three peaks is 2,132 feet above sea level. The Buttes sit on mostly private property with access available in the spring and fall through guided tours with Middle Mountain Sutter’s Hock Farm Interpretive Hikes. Signs along Hwy 20 will direct you to a scenic drive tour. The Sutter Buttes are the only mountain range you can circle in a day. This 40 mile loop can be done by car, motorcycle or bicycle.

Wheatland Hop Riot is Historic Marker #1003 located at Sixth and A Streets in Wheatland. In 1913, two workers and two law enforcement officers (including the District Attorney of Yuba County) were killed in one of the most important and well known events in California labor history: The Wheatland Hop Riot. The riots occurred after workers complained about labor conditions, and the owner of the Durst Hop Ranch called authorities. As a result, the riot focused public opinion on the plight of farm workers. A federal investigation of farm working conditions followed, and new regulations were passed for providing basic housing and sanitary amenities for workers. It was the first major farm labor confrontation in California.
