Las Vegas The Luxury City
Though a bit heavy on the neon, Las Vegas is a true feast for
the eyes. The skyline is amazing, with all of the sparkling
lights and massive shapes competing for attention. Every hotel
is striving to top the next one with its own unique theme,
majestic entrances, rollicking casinos, delectable restaurants,
and impressive entertainment. It can be said that Las Vegas does
not have a boring bone in its body.
The marketing angle of the Las Vegas tourism board has gone from
its old nickname, " Sin City," to being touted as a
family-friendly destination in the 1990's and back to Adults
Only with its new tagline, "What happens here, stays here." City
advertisers want to attract people from all over the world to
their own adult playground, complete with endless gambling,
alcohol, food, and entertainment. It is billed as a kind of
magical place that will cater to every need and fulfill every
fantasy.
The hotels in Las Vegas are truly incredible to behold. They pay
homage to other unique cities, like New York, Venice, and Paris,
by recreating smaller versions of these cities. New York, New
York hotel reconstructs the lively streets of Gotham. The
Venetian hotel has a huge indoor canal complete with gondolas
and gondoliers. The Paris hotel experience comes complete with a
replica of the Eiffel Tower. There are tributes to other themes
as well, including ancient Rome (Caesar's Palace), Hollywood
(MGM Grand), pirates ( Treasure Island), Arabian nights
(Aladdin) and many more. Two of the nicest hotels with casinos
in Las Vegas, the Bellagio and the Wynn Las Vegas Hotel, don't
have specific themes besides that of opulence and luxury.
From the Rat Pack of the mid-20 th century to Celine Dion today,
Vegas entertainment has always been a huge draw. Magicians, such
as Penn and Teller, and Siegfried and Roy, entertain crowds with
their amazing optical illusions. Comedians like Danny Gans and
Carrot Top perform often
in Las Vegas and are quite popular with
their use of extravagant props and sight gags. Veteran Vegas
entertainers, like Tony Orlando and Wayne Newton, still command
packed houses night after night with their well-loved repertoire
of musical favorites.
Shopping and eating are two more favorite past times in Las
Vegas. Caesar's Palace offers a world-class mall featuring a
painted blue sky with clouds adorning the ceiling. The Venetian
also has first class shopping with many designer brands. Most of
the other hotels showcase several great shops inside their
lobbies and host many more on their premises. When hunger
strikes, there is no shortage of fabulous food. Las Vegas is no
longer a place of $3.99 all-you-can-eat-buffets. World-renowned
chefs Wolfgang Puck (Spago) and Emeril Lagasse have several
excellent eateries in town and many of the prominent hotels
boast other award-winning restaurants.
Of course, the most popular reason for visiting Las Vegas is for
the gambling casinos. From the nickel slot machines to the rooms
of tables reserved for those starting bets over $1000, there is
a venue for every budget. Games such as craps, blackjack, and
baccarat draw millions of people a year to try their hand at the
tables, accompanied by attractive cocktail waitresses handing
out free drinks aplenty. There are some success stories, but
many more sob stories, when people arrive home from their jaunts
to Las Vegas after playing against the casinos. Amateur gamblers
who visit Las Vegas report that it is best to decide how much
money to play with before starting, and stick with that limit.
After all, Las Vegas is a fun destination for vacationing and
conventions, and it has a lot to offer visitors when they
practice some moderation in the gambling arena.
