  • At 1,149 feet (350.44 meters), the Stratosphere Tower is the tallest freestanding observation tower in the United States and the tallest building west of the Mississippi River. So you can have a good look around Las Vegas as you can see on this picture from the strip taken at the top of the tower.

    Visitors are whisked from ground level to the observation decks in less than 30 seconds in double decker elevators traveling at speeds of 1,800 feet (548.64 meters) per minute or three floors a second

  • It's the ideal place to cool down on a warm and dry day in Las Vegas. You can see it in the center of the picture, just in front of it you see the Sahara Hotel.

  • Well the stratosphere has yet another ride aded to their top of the world. They call it the X-Scream, it will plunge you over the edge of the stratosphere tower at a height of 866 feet above the ground (compare with over 100 floors). Although it might have a short track (about 31 feet over the edge of the tower) you really do not have to have a fear of heights. Onxe your are safely seated the ride tumbles forwards and the cart goes with a speed of 30 mph over the edges and leaves you hanging for a while to enjoy the view..

    It might not be the fastest attractions or the longest attraction but you should try it...Niki decided not to she took the pictures and a short movie...just mail me if you want to see that.

    Canyon Blaster (Roller Coaster)

     I wouldn't mind going there to see the hotels and the neon and glitter, but I'd pass on the gambling.
