This place is truly incredible, as if one is in a fairy tale.
This photo is testimony to this unrealism, which is thoroughly enjoyable, and probably as addictive as the gambling it was built for.
Certainly worth a visit at least once.
What can I say? A fantasy turned into a reality of some sorts. Theme upon theme in this city makes up the basis for an addiction, a habit.
Although, it does seem that LV is becoming something like a shopping mecca with hotels like Venetian and Bellagios.
- Pros:Fantasies live, even if short-lived.
- Cons:The whole setting, in the middle of nowhere and over the top.
- In a nutshell:At least once for the tourist fun, stay away if a recovering gambler.
