"For a truly unique look into the complexities of the human body, stop by the BODIES exhibit. Thirteen preserved human bodies have been carefully shaped to display every facet of the human body, including circulatory and nervous systems. It’s geared towards people without scientific backgrounds without being too scientific."

Bodies: The Exhibition showcases 13 real human bodies that have been carefully preserved so you can peek under your skin for a rare three-dimensional view of the human body.

"A five-block pedestrian mall, between Main St and N Las Vegas Blvd, topped by an arched steel canopy and filled with computer-controlled lights, the Fremont Street Experience has brought life back Downtown. Every evening, the canopy is transformed by light-and-sound shows enhanced by 550,000 watts of wraparound sound and a larger-than-life screen lit up by 12.5-million synchronized LEDs.

"The Fremont Street Experience is mostly known for its overhead light show, named Viva Vision. It offers a series of free nightly shows that feature 12.5 million lights and 550,000 watts of sound, dispersed along the roofing of a “street.” It is a spectacular display of lights and technology, to say the least!. Also, street performers, impersonators, and other artists can be seen at street level."
