Best Things to Do in Las Vegas
If you're in Vegas, you must visit a few of the massive casinos strewn throughout the city and centralized along the Strip. But gambling isn't the only thing to do here: The city houses numerous spas, performance venues, clubs and even kid-friendly attractions. There are even other diversions attached to the casinos -- you can take a gondola ride at the Venetian, check out the view atop Paris' Eiffel Tour or enjoy the fantastic fountain show at the Bellagio. You should also swing by the Fremont Street Experience (also known as FSE) in downtown Las Vegas, a five-block pedestrian walkway that hosts free concerts and performances throughout the week.
