Glamorous Las Vegas

Over the years, the city of Las Vegas has become synonymous with glitz and glamour. A gambling capital, vacation paradise or leading business destination, Las Vegas can be defined in several ways. One of the most dynamic and unique cities in the world, Las Vegas shimmers from the dusty deserts of Nevada and is home to over one million people. The rapid growth of the city has been fueled by tourism, with approximately thirty seven million tourists visiting Las Vegas each year. The city, considered to be the ‘Entertainment Capital of the World', offers several recreational options apart from legalized gambling. This pulsating city comes alive at night, with casinos, clubs and hotels hosting world-class shows and performances.

The Las Vegas skyline is dominated by replicas of other buildings from cities like Paris, Venice, New York, and ancient Egypt. Outstanding imitations of the Statue of Liberty, a giant lion, a pyramid, and a Sphinx along with preternaturally glittering buildings will mesmerize you completely. There is an abundance of upscale eateries, ideal for executive lunches or dinners. Inexpensive dining is still an option at buffet spreads and meal deals but is gradually becoming rare. You will also find several wedding chapels that will gladly unite even two total strangers in holy wedlock for a simple fee.

Night shows include performances by some of the world's most famous singers. Elvis fans will be amazed by fabulous performances by impersonators. Volcanoes, exotic white tigers, cocktail waitresses and sexy showgirls all add to the stunning visual appeal of night shows at Vegas. Massive halls host world championship boxing matches throughout the year that attract large crowds.

The glamorous Strip starts from Mandalay Bay and stretches up to the Stratosphere and is the heart of the city, the center of activity where the worlds best hotels, casinos and restaurants are located. Bellagio, Caesars Palace, Flamingo, MGM Grand and the Venetian are all a part of the Strip. Off the strip, you will find some of the best casinos in the city like Hard Rock, the Palms, and Rio. The downtown is home to Fremont Street Experience, a light show focused on the world's largest electric sign and is also a budding arts district with numerous art galleries and showrooms.

Las Vegas will completely amaze you by its diversity and captivate you from the very moment you step foot in the city.
