More About Marysville
Marysville sits where the Feather and Yuba Rivers meet, and its Gold Rush roots still show all over town. A few local favorites:
- Gold Rush river town. Founded in 1850 as a supply hub for the gold fields, Marysville keeps its historic downtown, with old brick buildings and a walkable grid of streets.
- Bok Kai Temple. This Chinese temple on the riverfront dates to 1880 and honors the water god. It's the center of the annual Bok Kai Festival and parade.
- Ellis Lake. A relaxed spot for morning walks, picnics and watching ducks, right next to downtown and an easy place to unwind.
- Views of the Sutter Buttes. Just across the river, this small, rugged volcanic range, often called the world's smallest mountain range, rises from the flat valley floor.

What happens if I drive without insurance here?
A first offense is a $100 to $200 fine plus penalty assessments, and later offenses can mean impound. About 12% of Marysville households have no vehicle, but if you drive, you need coverage.
