Once upon a time, Las Vegas was the place to be for those who wanted to experience all the fun, from clean to unscrupulous, that the world had to offer. However, the popularity of the city, as a tourist destination, has led to many attempts to replicate the success. Today, the success of Las Vegas has been replicated by Atlantic City, Macau, and a plethora of other gambling destinations around the world, some of which, such as Macau for example, have surpassed it in terms of revenue spent on gambling. However, Sin City remains one of the biggest tourist destinations around the globe, and the entertainment capital of the world.
While most people associate the city with gambling and casinos, that isn’t all that Las Vegas has to offer. In this article, we are going to look at all the different attractions that the city can provide for tourists from across the world.
Extravagant Casinos
We said before that casinos are not all that Las Vegas has to offer, however, we would be remised if we did not mention all the grandiose structures where people from all over the country gather to play their favorite games. Poker tournaments, thousands of slot machines, and of course, roulette are just a few of the attractions that these casinos have to offer. Among all the casinos present in the city, the most popular ones include the MGM Grand, Caesars Palace, and the Paris Las Vegas casino.
For those of you leaving the city, who have developed a taste for all the different gambling games, there are ways to recapture the same experience. In the past few years, online casinos such as Casumo, have gained major prominence, and are now just as popular, if not more so, as their land-based counterparts.
Magic Shows
There certainly is something magical about the Las Vegas experience, not the least of which is the plethora of magic stage shows that the city has to offer. Often referred to as the magic capital of the world, some of the most famous and most beloved magic acts around the globe have taken the Las Vegas stages and have shown off tricks that will befuddle the mind of even the most hardened skeptic.
Among the most popular acts today are of course Penn and Teller. The two magicians are often considered the successors to the greatest magic duo of all time, Siegfried, and Roy, and they have certainly lived up to their predecessor. Apart from Penn and Teller, people can check out the shows of acts like David Copperfield, Criss Angel, and Mat Franco, all of which are guaranteed to amaze and entertain.
