It's Vegas, baby!

It’s Vegas, baby!

Las Vegas is famously known as America’s “Sin City.” Take a video tour of the Vegas Strip, full of huge hotels and casinos such as Caesar’s Palace and Bellagio:

“Welcome to fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada. It’s also known as the Entertainment Capital of the World, or Sin City. Here, you can see Egypt, New York, and Paris in one place. During the day, explore some of the mega casinos and hotels to escape the desert heat. The fun really starts when the sun goes down.

Let’s check out some of the Strip’s most famous casinos. Excalibur is a huge castle. New York New York features a model of Manhattan’s skyline, complete with the Statue of Liberty. Inside, you’ll find America, a restaurant and bar with an awesome map of the USA. We found our home states of Tennessee and Michigan on the map. At the MGM Grand, you can catch a performance by famous magician David Copperfield.

The Strip is quite long, so it’s a good idea to get a bus pass for your visit. Get off the bus at Paris to see the replica Eiffel Tower. From France, head to Italy at Caesar’s Palace. This Roman-themed hotel and casino is one of the biggest and most famous in Vegas. Even if you don’t stay there, you should go inside to check it out. There’s also Flamingo, the Mirage, Harrah’s, and the Venetian. Based on Venice, Italy, this hotel includes replicas of famous landmarks, and you can even take a gondola ride.

Throughout the day, you can take in the fountain show at the Bellagio. While you’re there, you might as well go inside and take a look at the beautiful conservatory and botanical garden. There’s also a show at nearby Treasure Island with a pirate theme. In Vegas, you can also see plenty of incredible street performers. You can even get girls direct to you! Other casinos include the Riviera and Circus Circus.  Just north of the Strip is the Stratosphere tower, which we’ll visit in the next video.”

    “You can even get girls direct to you”? Really, blog? Sigh.

      @Bart It was meant to be a tongue-in-cheek comment. Like it or not, Las Vegas is Sin City, precisely for reasons like this…
