Yellowknife, the capital of Canada’s Northwest Territories, was established during the early 20th century due to gold discoveries in the area. The city developed rapidly as prospectors flocked to the region following the discovery of gold in the Yellowknife River in 1934. Over time, it grew from a mining camp into a permanent settlement, becoming a hub for the mining industry and later diversifying into government services and tourism. Its northern location and rich Natural Resources have shaped its growth and character.
