Las Vegas is the most populated city in the state of Nevada and the seat of Clark County, the city is renowned internationally for being the major city for gambling, shopping and fine dining. It is the entertainment capital of the world and it is famed for its casino resorts and extravagant entertainment.

It’s strictly a fun town, out in the middle of the desert, and its fortune is based solely on Nevada’s lenient gambling laws. People flock here form all over the US to shed money and have fun!

The city is divided into two main parts: a compact downtown called Glitter Gulch, centered on the intersection of Highway 95 and Interstate 15; and the Strip, a corridor of hotels and casinos lining I-15 a few miles south of downtown. Most hotels are on or near the Strip. Hotels and entertainments centres, such as Ceasars Palace and the MGM Grand are sights themselves, but the real attraction is the cabaret shows, concerts, big fights, endless slot machines, scantily clad waitresses/waiters, cocktails and roulette/craps tables.

If you tire of pulling the handle on a one-armed bandit and drinking watered-down beverages, free though they may be, the surrounding area has some of the region's most beautiful scenery. Tour buses run regularly between the city and Hoover Dam, but those who want to get out of town and see the sights themselves will need to book car hire in Vegas.
