The Top Museums to Visit in Las Vegas, Nevada
"The airy central conservatory, which opens up right as you enter Bellagio, was inspired by the verdigris framework of Art Nouveau conservatories of Paris. Despite the fact that Las Vegas sits smack in the middle of the Mojave Desert, you can see the changing seasons in all their glory here as the garden transforms five times per year with fresh flowers; towering animatronic butterflies and birds; burbling fountains and bobbing lanterns. Each of its seasonal “theatrical presentations” of the elements is totally new."
"The Conservatory & Botanical Gardens is easily a top candidate for the most photographed spot in Las Vegas. It’s also one of the best free attractions on the Strip. On display in the hotel lobby, the exhibits change every few months based on the season (like autumn and spring), holidays (like Chinese New Year and Thanksgiving) or whatever seems to be a compelling visual (a Japanese tea garden and “Under the Sea” were recent favorites)."
"The Bellagio is one of the most elegant hotels on the strip and the Bellagio conservatory and gardens are reflective of that atmosphere in a kid friendly environment. The atrium is filled with sculptures that are changed seasonally and made entirely from flowers, trees, and plants. Bellagio fountains as seen from above."
"Highlights: Las Vegas, Hoover Dam, Flagstaff Mountains We always recommend flying into Las Vegas because there are all sorts of extremely affordable flights that fly into this world-famous city. If you can, try to catch an early morning flight into Las Vegas because it leaves time for exploring.

"The Memorial Bridge, mentioned above, gives a spectacular view of the Hoover Dam, which is located in the Black Canyon on the Colorado River. It was opened in 1936 and was built to control floods and produce hydroelectric power. Today, the Hoover Dam is still in use and there are two lanes of traffic that run across it."
"Hemenway Park allows visitors the opportunity to closely mingle with bighorn sheep that come down from the nearby mountains to graze. The park also has playground equipment, gazebos, sport courts, and a view of Lake Mead."
