Considered the most entertainment filled two and a half miles in the entire world, the Las Vegas Strip glitters and glows with massive resorts and hotels, theaters, restaurants, gardens, and other attractions. This famous portion of Las Vegas Boulevard, running from the Mandalay Bay Hotel to the Treasure Island Hotel, is what most visitors come to the city to see and experience.

This is where the huge resorts, like Paris, New York-New York, The Bellagio, The Venetian, and Caesar’s Palace are located. Lit up at night, The Strip shows up as one of the brightest spots on earth when seen from space.

Also worth seeing is Fremont Street in old downtown Las Vegas. Draped with a canopy of LED lights, the light show here in the evening, known as the Fremont Street Experience, is a must-do if you have time.

Las Vegas is one of the best places to visit in the US for a quick, action-packed getaway. Flights from all over the country offer easy access, making it a top destination for everything from a girls getaway weekend to a wedding. Families can also find hotels that cater to people traveling with kids, or pet-friendly hotels.

If you want to see more than just the city, you can escape to nature on some beautiful hiking trails near Las Vegas or simply enjoy a day trip to nearby Death Valley National Park or Valley of Fire State Park.
