Las Vegas is much more than jangling one arm bandits, and
noisy casinos. Seriously, there is so much more to do than
gamble and eat from mile-long buffet tables. Las Vegas is
home to the some of the finest nightlife, shopping,
attractions, and golf courses in the world.
Your entertainment options are unlimited in this city known
as "America's Playground". There are thrilling roller
coasters, dolphin and magic shows, and street shows such as
Treasure Island's life-like pirate battle. You can even tour
Egypt in a simulated ride. There are places to bowl, enjoy a
leisurely spa, shop 'til you drop, and even get married. The
possibilities are almost overwhelming, so make sure to plan,
or have some sort of idea what you would like to see and do
while you are there.
You will definitely want to put a trip to Fremont Street on
your itinerary. Fremont Street is located in the heart of
downtown Las Vegas and is a short stroll from many hotels or
you can ride the public transportation which is extremely
clean and passenger friendly. Look overhead as you walk the
4 block long Fremont Street Experience and you will be awed
by the over 2.1 million lights and the state-of-the-art
sound system in the canopy constructed 90 feet over street
level.
If you are vacationing and wanting to spoil yourself, then
you have come to the perfect place. Many of the spas offer
fitness centers. In addition you can treat yourself to
facials, massages, body wraps, saunas, heated whirlpools,
steam rooms and other treatments, including tanning.
Don't dare miss the fountains at Bellagio. It is one of
the most spectacular and memorable sights in Las Vegas or
maybe even the world! You will be mesmerized as the water
takes on a life all it's own and dances in perfect
synchronization to broadway favorites and opera and
everything thing else in between. Best of all this show is
also free.
While you are at Bellagio, make time to tour their gardens.
You will feel yourself relax, as you enter this tranquil
oasis. With over 85,000 square foot of space the
conservatory has 1,200 exotic plants and flowers such as
orchids and lilies. Every month, the fragrant displays are
changed to keep the scenery fresh.
On May 15, 2005, Las Vegas will be celebrating its 100th
Birthday! It's an historic event that has something to
offer everyone. The Centennial Celebration Committee has
promised to commemorate the 100th birthday by hosting a
birthday party that’s bigger and brighter than the neon
lights on the Las Vegas Strip! The party actually started on
December 31, 2004 and will last for more than a year.
With all the resorts competing for your business, you will
be able to find cheap or at least heavy discounts on rooms
and meals. Seniors and students can find special airfare and
accomodations to suit their budgets. Las Vegas is resort
whereby you can spend as much or as little as you want and
have a great experience.
Daytime or nightime, Las Vegas is a wonderful place to bring
the whole family to vacation or just get away with someone
special. And with the BIG Centennnial planned, what better
time than the present?
