Best History Museum in Mount Charleston

"The Luxor Although promoted as a casino attraction, "Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition" certainly qualifies as a museum with its deep collection of relics recovered from the doomed ocean liner. Some of the materials stored in leather luggage are in pristine condition, but what really sets this exhibit apart from similar collections is "the big piece" -- a chunk of the ship's wall that is the largest ever recovered. Along the way, you'll also experience recreations of the outdoor deck and the elegant staircase made famous in, you know, that movie."

"Sail back in time, as you go through a 17-display attractive exhibition hall brimming with curios and diversions of the Titanic. Guided via prepared performers in period dress, jump profound into 100 years of history, from the shores of England to the profundities of the Atlantic. Located into a 20,000-square-foot, this museum contains shows, ancient pieces, and full ranges of reproductions of the ship areas like the Grand Staircase, a First Class Cabin, the Verandah Cafe, and the boilers."

"If you’ve never seen a piece of the mysterious Titanic up close, then you’ll want to hit up this top museum in Las Vegas. The Titanic exhibition displays several authentic artifacts recovered from the sunken Titanic ocean liner. Chef hats, wrenches, fine china, and chandeliers are just a few of the over 250 artifacts on display."

"Located at Springs Preserve, the Nevada State Museum works to advance the understanding of the history, pre-history, and natural history of Nevada. With everything from Nevada’s state fossil to historic Las Vegas glitz and glamour. Traveling exhibits ensure that each trip to the Nevada State Museum is a new experience for visitors new and old."

"Every child loves watching the trains pass by, especially the large freight trains. The Nevada State Railroad Museum, found in Carson City, tells the history of the Nevada railroad system through locomotives, artifacts, photographs, and other exhibitions."

"This is the only museum in the world dedicated to the art of Burlesque. There are thousands of different photographs, props, and costumes to see. Learn about famous burlesque performers in different rotating exhibits or check out their permanent exhibits that cover the timelines and history of this art form."

"Burlesque has a long, proud history, and the Burlesque Hall of Fame is dedicated to developing, preserving and showcasing it. The displays are filled with props and costumes. Vintage memorabilia is everywhere."

"It's hard to say what's more impressive: the museum's physical location in a historic federal courthouse where mobsters sat for federal hearings in 1950–51, the fact that the board of directors is headed up by a former FBI special agent, or the thoughtfully curated exhibits telling the story of organized crime in America. In addition to hands-on FBI equipment and mob-related artifacts, the museum boasts a series of multimedia exhibits featuring interviews with real-life Tony Sopranos."

"Fascinating multimedia exhibits focus on science, technology and the social history of the 'Atomic Age,' which lasted from WWII until atmospheric bomb testing was driven underground in 1961 and a worldwide ban on nuclear testing was declared in 1992. View footage of atomic testing and examine southern Nevada's nuclear past, present and future, from Native American ways of life to the environmental legacy of atomic testing. Don't miss the ticket booth (how could you?); it's a Nevada Test Site guard-station replica."

"Address: Las Palmas Indoor Swap Meet, 3115 Las Vegas Blvd N, Las Vegas, NV 89115. The Las Palmas Indoor Swap Meet is a large indoor flea market that is located in the heart of Las Vegas. This flea market is known for its commitment to quality, as all of its vendors bring the best products and goods."

"The rainforest-themed dining room at Harmon Corner (a short walk from Planet Hollywood) erupts regularly with “thunderstorms,” and features a talking tree, a boa constrictor, and a 14-foot-long animatronic crocodile. For those who were lobbying for Disneyland over Las Vegas for the family vacation: everyone wins. The kids’ menu may be a little uninspiring for kids who like to veer off the beaten path (read: lots of chicken nuggets, burgers, grilled cheese, and mini hotdogs), but this may be just the ticket for parents who would like to settle in with a sugary cocktail and let the jungle animals do the entertaining for a bit."

"Parents can’t go wrong with Rainforest Cafe when searching for family restaurants in Las Vegas. Rainforest Cafe’s atmosphere is fun and exciting; with a jungle-inspired interior that includes a volcano, waterfall, animatronic animals and more. The menu includes classic and eclectic options, such as pasta, chicken nuggets, pizza, and much more; all of the menu items are named after the restaurant’s rainforest theme, so expect treats like “python pasta” and “jungle chicken tidbits”!"

"The iconic Rainforest Cafe is known for its American food served in a jungle setting. The casual dining restaurant which serves the standard kids menu is found in The Miracle Mile Shops across from the City Center."

"We realize that Shake Shack can now be found in many cities, but its New York-New York Hotel & Casino location is a lifesaver for parents. Walk in from the city’s first community green space, The Park, and either sit in the large dining room or take your food right back out. Don’t miss one of the chain’s famous concretes (made with sweets from local bakery Gimme Some Sugar, these dense ice cream shakes are best eaten with a spoon)."

"Shake Shack is one of the most popular Las Vegas family restaurants. Here, you and your tribe can eat easy to eat meals, refreshing beverages, and finger food."
