Step into a paradise, into the most expensive hotel -casino ever built, the Wynn Las Vegas. The entrance is hidden from the strip by a $130 million dollar mountain! Behind that lies heaven with mountain views, waterfalls and other astounding special effects. The 50 storey curved tower is covered in bronze glass. La Reve, a stunning water show takes places in a theatre in the round. The stage doubles as a million gallon pool.
The Tuscan inspired Bellagio casino-hotel architecture with mesmerising dancing fountains in a beautiful artificial 8 acre lake is an elegant, fabulous place to visit. Your eyes will water at the sensational backlit glass sculpture in the lobby of 2000 flowers in vivid colours
Caesar’s Palace Las Vegas. What a name to conjure with! Make sure you see the Brahma shrine which towers over big fountains, in the Romanesque, Greek interior of this typical Las Vegas highlight.
Take a gondola ride down the Grand Canal when you visit the Venetian casino with hand painted frescoed ceilings. It is a ride to remember in this beautiful reconstruction of Venice in the middle of Las Vegas.
Pet a small shark at the Shark Reef in tropical fantasyland, Mandalay Bay. Don’t worry they won’t eat any of your winnings under a million dollars.
Treasure Island is full of skulls and crossbones of gamblers who have lost everything and have been unable to leave! Seriously it is a beautifully designed Caribbean secluded casino most suitable for adults.
Watch a popular show with a simple plot. The Sirens of Treasure Island shows a few times each evening, when attractive young ladies defend themselves against gangster bootleggers.
Feel a chill up your spine at the white tiger habitat at the exciting Mirage entrance. Walk round the huge jungle, mysterious creeks and gentle cascades. If you hear an explosion, it isn’t a gambler down on her luck; it’s the eruption of the manmade volcano at the front of the Mirage casino-hotel.
The ‘City of Entertainment’ the MGM Grand is part of Metro Goldwyn Mayer and has a 45 foot bronze statue of a lion on top of a 25 ft pedestal in a landscape of fountains and statues.
Paris Las Vegas is another breathtaking construction with the Eiffel Tower, the Champs- Elysees and the River Seine around the building!
New York New York with its Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty in the middle of the September 11thMemorial, the Brooklyn Bridge, is yet another brilliant shameless reconstruction.
Some people say the most remarkable resort on the Strip is The Luxor and the 30 storey pyramid in black glass. These modern copies of huge Egyptian Statues inside, the reconstruction of the Great Temple of Ramses and perfect reproductions of ancient Egyptian antiquities are just amazing to be amongst.
