Las Vegas is a city that was made for entertainment, carved out of the Mojave Desert with escape in mind. Millions of people visit Las Vegas annually to relax, dine, shop, see performers, experience the nightlife and, of course, enjoy a go at the gaming tables. Check out top attractions which are waiting for you in Las Vegas.

Your fun begins on The Strip, Las Vegas’ main artery and home to bustling casinos, world-class restaurants, ornately designed resorts and over-the-top shows. Take a photo at the famous “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” sign on South Las Vegas Boulevard, then it’s off to start your adventures.

Off the Strip, an equal amount of fun awaits you. Head over to Fremont Street, and try the SlotZilla Zip Lines under the Viva Vision video canopy of the Fremont Street Experience. Passengers on the upper line “fly” over all the excitement of Fremont Street below

Spend the day diving with sharks at the Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay, or strap in for the 108-story controlled free fall at SkyJump at the Stratosphere Tower. The ideal spot to catch your breath is the three-level Chandelier Bar at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, offering signature drinks and its own multi-story visual spectacle.

Take a break from the bright lights and visit nearby Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area for hiking, biking and climbing adventures, and then unwind with a spa treatment at the Red Rock Resort. Las Vegas also offers access to whitewater rafting at the Grand Canyon, zip lining in Boulder City, year-round golf and dune buggy tours through the sand dunes. Check out the Neon Museum to tour the signs that once adorned Las Vegas hotels and casinos. Also sure to capture your interest are the Mob Museum, officially the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement; the National Atomic Testing Museum and Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art.

Las Vegas earns its nickname as the “Entertainment Capital of the World.”
