Located at the Hotel Paris, the Eiffel Tower is a replica of the one in Paris, France. It towers up to a height of 50 stories. A great place to get a panaramic picture of the Southern part of the Las Vegas Strip. Admission to the Eiffel Tower is $9. Tickets are available in the gift shop by the bridge.

Being that I live near New York City and am able to see it on a frequent basis, it was odd to see a replica of it. Some things do look totally fake, like the Empire State Building. However, I thought they did a nice job replicating the Statue of Liberty. Kind of odd not seeing it surrounded by water. The New York, New York is unique because it has a huge arcade with a roller coster, which circles around the building. I guess this was supposed to replicate Coney Island. The roller coster costs $12 per ride during weekends and $10 per ride during the week.

There is one thing that I can say about the MGM Grand, it is huge!!! I was walking in there for hours looking for things. I liked the lions in the middle of the casino. It also has lots of entertainment there. For instance, George Carlin was doing a stand up comedian show while I was there (Late May 2004). There are also many major boxing matches from this building.

The Excalibur's theme is Old England. This hotel has a nice shopping arcade of about 20 stores. There is even a McDonald's and Taco Bell in this hotel. This hotel is connected to the Luxor and Mandalay Bay by tram.

The Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino is at the southern end of the Las Vegas trip. While I was there, this was the casino with the most activity. Prince was doing a big concert that night for charity. There were a lot of big name stars such as Tiger Woods and Jessica Alba. It is also another major boxing venue in Las Vegas. It is connected to the Luxor and the Excalibur by tram. There is a nice little mall that runs between Mandalay Bay and the Luxor. I also accidently ended up in the pool area here too. The pool area was very impressive.

Here is the front of the Monte Carlo Hotel & Casino. I did not go into the casino itself (My feet were starting to get tired at this point). I was most impressed with the fountain in front of the hotel. It shows that this was definitely a classy place.
