From big and beautiful casinos, restaurants, bars, strip clubs, to shops, Las Vegas is the one place you should make sure you visit, even if it’s just the one time. From the way it’s showcased in the movies and all the brochures, if there are any, the life in Las Vegas is, really what it seems to be. There are just too many things to do, and just as many places to visit, with no time to do it all; but if you get a chance to do one thing, just go out and enjoy sin city’s rich and extremely entertaining nightlife, and you’ll be in for a nice and un-forgetful time of your life.
Gambling
Undoubtedly, the first thing that usually comes to
mind when you hear or read the name Las Vegas anywhere, is gambling. And as far
as gambling is concerned, sin city has a collection of casinos, known from
every corner of the globe. Unmistakably, it is a unique chance to try and find
out if lady luck is on your side or not. Top rated casinos, like the Bellagio, Caesars
Palace, the MGM Grand, and the Golden Nugget, among others, are ever packed
with poker players, and all-round gamblers, who are also out trying to find
their big break. Just make sure you are in tune with your gambling skills,
before you head out for some action as well. It just might be your lucky night.
If you’ve had your fix of Wizard Slots then why not visit one of Las Vegas many
land-based casino options


Spendsome time in the strip
The Strip is, unmistakably, Las Vegas main center of
attraction, and it is packed with all the main points of attraction you can
ever hope to visit when you are in the city. It is in the Strip that you find
iconic landmarks, like the pyramid and the sphinx, the Bellagio casino itself
and the elegant Bellagio fountains, tall observatories, along with the Eiffel
Tower. You can either hire a car to take you around the Strip as you take in
the beautiful sights, or even, a helicopter tour to get a glimpse of the
beautiful night lights of the various places in it. Even if you have to do it
on foot, make sure you take some time to visit the strip, especially at night.


Havea meal at the Eiffel tower restaurant
The city’s very own Paris has a few things that are
exact replicas of the real things in the city of lights. Things that also
warrant a visit. Here, you’ll find a half-size replica of the Eiffel tower,
which not only is a good way to take in breathtaking views of the various parts
around the city, but also proves to be a good place to stop by and have a
decent meal. That’s right, the half-size Eiffel tower is also a restaurant; a
French restaurant for that matter. It is also a place where love is greatly
inspired, just like the original Paris. It is a perfect place for you and your
significant other to spend some time together over a meal, while you take in
the sites from the rest of the city.


RedRock Canyon
This National conservation area offers you a chance to
explore the areas beyond the city limits of Las Vegas, and have a good time at
that. The Red Rock Canyon National Conservation has numerous trails where you
can make plans to take long walks, or bicycle rides, as you enjoy the sun and
the beautiful environment of the Mojave Desert, and the hills engulfing it. The
park is definitely a good way to spend some time away from the gambling and
entertaining nightlife of sin city, and do something fun and involving for a
change. There are no restrictions for taking your car with you on the trails of
the pack; just be sure to bring a map and sunscreen with you on your hike.


Hooverdam
Lastly, but certainly not the least, Hoover Dam is
another place you should plan to visit. It is a guarantee that you will marvel
at this impressive feat of Engineering and construction. If you’re not taking a
tour in the dam, and getting a chance to learn some interesting facts along the
way, you can always take a boat ride on Lake Mead, or a leisurely cruise to the
West Rim, on the Colorado River. If that doesn’t tickle your fancy, then you
can always hire a helicopter, and get a bird’s eye-view of the Hoover Dam, and
the wonderful surrounding. It will be a story worth telling one day.
