Holidays to Las Vegas

Why not visit the Nevada city of Las Vegas. It can be an awesome place to have a vacation in. You may want to buy or rent a villa, a flat a hotel room in the city.

The city is located in an arid basin surrounded by mountains varying in color from pink to rust to gray. City elevation is around 2030 feet (620 m) above sea level. The Spring Mountains lie to the west. As befits a desert, much of the landscape is rocky and dusty. Within the city, however, there are a great deal of lawns, trees, and other greenery. Due to water resource issues, there is now a movement to encourage xeriscapes instead of lawns. Another part of the water conservation efforts include scheduled watering groups for watering residential landscaping.

Tourism

The major attractions in Las Vegas are the casinos. The most famous hotels are located on Las Vegas Boulevard, better known as the Las Vegas Strip. Many of these hotels carry thousands of rooms. There are, of course, large casino areas in these hotels as well. There are many hotel casinos in the city's downtown area as well, which was the original focal point of the city's gaming industry in its early days. Several large hotels and casinos are also located somewhat off the Strip but adjacent to it, as well as in the county around the city.

Some of the most notable casinos located downtown are on the Fremont Street Experience and include:

Golden Nugget, Four Queens, Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel, Fremont Casino, Plaza Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas Club, Fitzgeralds Las Vegas, Golden Gate Hotel and Casino, California Hotel and Casino
