Top 10 Things To Do, Activities and Attractions in Paradise

"As much as we love fish and rainforests, we need to move on - we have completely different free Las Vegas shows waiting for us at The Venetian Hotel, or, in particular, at the Grand Canal Shoppes. Here, we are going to watch a beautiful Italian themed production of Carnevale di Venezia, also known as Streetmosphere - incredibly beautiful free Las Vegas shows, where "Street" performers dressed in costumes of Italian Renaissance period, sing Italian songs and opera. They have a complex schedule, but performances start at 12:00 p.m."

"One look at the Venetian and you will not dispute why it cost 1.5 billion USD to build the hotel in 1999!. The most expensive resort and hotel of its time, it was inspired by the city of Venice, in Italy. This Las Vegas building includes all the famous landmarks of Venice, both within and outside the building, including the Palazzo Ducale, Piazza San Marco, Lion of Venice column, St. Mark’s Campanile, and even the Rialto Bridge."

"This 5-star eco-friendly The Palazzo at The Venetian® is on the Vegas Strip. The luxury hotel features a full-service spa and health club, pool deck overlooking the Strip, and a state-of-the-art casino. The Palazzo at The Venetian® offers spacious suites with a separate living area and a dining table."

"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."

"Not to be outdone by the Flamingo, the Bellagio Hotel and Casino boasts it’s own free to visit nature display known at the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, located just inside of the hotel. This sprawling garden is constantly changing up its flowery displays based on the season. During the holidays, you’ll see Christmas trees."

"Soon enough, Las Vegas will be home to an NFL team, something that’s brand new to the scene. And, definitely, something that families will be coming to from miles around to enjoy. Be a part of sports history by checking out the brand new Allegiant Stadium and watching the Raiders play in their new home."

"You can visit the zip line area, or watch the amazing light shows that happen every day. You can stroll through the outdoor museum called “Neon Museum” to see a wide range..."

"“Mystere” at Treasure Island is the classic Cirque production that has a little bit of everything, and “Michael Jackson ONE” at Mandalay Bay as well as “The Beatles: LOVE” at Mirage will have your toes tapping to classic music of each show’s namesake the entire time. Also consider “KA” at MGM Grand for the adventurers and sheer acrobatics, no matter which show you decide to take in, you’re going to be blown away."

"One of the great things about Las Vegas is that you don’t have to wait for the weekend to cut loose. There are fun things to do every day and every night, especially when you visit a place like Treasure Island. Bet on black at the casino."

"Lorenzi Park was the vision of David G. Lorenzi, a French immigrant who bought 80 acres of property around two miles west of the first townsite in 1912. The park started as Lorenzi’s Lake Park in 1926 with a dance pavilion, pool, lakes, and gardens. It is recorded on the city’s Historic Property Register as a historic region and on the Nevada State Register of Historic places."

"At the height of the Depression, thousands of men and their families migrated here and worked in excruciating conditions, dangling hundreds of feet above Black Canyon in 120°F (about 50°C) heat to build this massive 726ft-high dam, completed ahead of schedule and under budget in 1936. Ninety-six workers lost their lives building the iconic art-deco styled structure, which redefines the stark landscape. Tours of the dam structure begin at the Hoover Dam Parking Garage & Visitor Center."

"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."

"One of Southern Nevada’s unique trail experiences, the Historic Railroad Trail is dog-friendly hiking trail along a former railroad grade with breathtaking panoramic views of the Lake Mead and Boulder Basin area. Designated as a national recreation trail, the 7.5-mile Historic Railroad Trail shares the rich history of the creation of Lake Mead and the construction of the Hoover Dam and winds through five massive tunnels, each approximately 300 feet in length and 25 feet in diameter, and along a portion of the original railroad route that was used between Boulder City and the Hoover Dam in the mid-1900s. Boulder City, NV 89005, Phone: 702-293-8990"

"Designated a Historic National Trail, this hike is an awesome opportunity to connect with nature while learning. The trail goes through 5 old railroad tunnels, which were last used in 1961. It’s also the last part of the Hoover Dam Railroad system that isn’t disturbed or underwater."

"The Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, also known as the Hoover Dam Bridge, crosses the Colorado River between the states of Arizona and Nevada and is world renowned for its impressive feats of engineering. The 1,500-foot-long four-lane highway bridge rests 890 feet above the Colorado River and is the second-highest bridge in the United States. It also features the world's tallest concrete columns of their kind and is the highest and longest arched concrete bridge in the Western Hemisphere."
