Must Sees | Food | Transportation

MUST SEES

The Sphere

Experience a fully immersive and interactive experience at the largest wraparound LED screen with beamforming speakers. Physical 4D effects include seat movement, holograms, and atmospheric simulations. Its exosphere also has brilliant rotating displays.

Meow Wolf

Explore Omega Mart’s whimsical grocery products. Walk through a freezer door portal to the ruins of an alien world. In the immersive art rooms, look at glow in the dark flowers and play music with laser beams. Solve the Dramcorp mystery.

The Cosmopolitan

The Cosmopolitan has a three-story bar contained within a giant crystal chandelier. It is a modern and ultra luxe oasis at the heart of the action on the Strip.

Bellagio

Over a thousand fountains dance to light and music every 15 minutes during the day and 30 minutes at night. Inside the lobby, Dale Chihuly’s 2,000 colorful, hand-blown, glass flowers hang from the ceiling.

The Venetian

Famous landmarks from Venice decorate the exterior. Inside, the ceiling is painted like the daytime sky and gondolas float through a sparkling blue canal.

Caesar’s Palace

Indulge in the regal settings of the Roman Empire at its peak. Recreations of famous paintings and sculptures set the stage.

FOOD

China Poblano

Jose Andres applies his innovation to tacos and noodles at China Poblano. The Viva China taco is a twist on Peking duck, with thinly-sliced crispy beef tendons instead of duck skins. The tortilla stands in for the crepe and the raw oyster is a pleasant surprise.

Miznon

If you need a quick bite, head to Miznon for elevated Israeli street food. It’s all about the pita, so thick and fluffy anything would taste good inside it. The lamb kebab is grilled and juicy. The tomatoes, onions, and pickles are fresh and crunchy. The spicy green peppers and tahini burst with flavor.

Lobster Tail

At Carlo’s Bakery, the lobster tail pastry is a riff on the sfogiatella. The pastry dough is pulled into many cascading layers to resemble a lobster tail shell. The crunchy shell is dusted with sugar and filled with French cream. The custard folded with whipped cream is really thick, sweet, and well creamy.

Cronut

Dominique Ansel is the inventor of the cronut, so this is not just some fried croissant. The laminated pastry dough is fried, filled with cream, and glazed. The texture is dense, soft, flaky, and airy on the inside and crispy on the outside. His bakery offers seasonal varieties with different fillings and flavors.

Verbena

At the center of the Chandelier Bar, try the not-so-secret Verbena. Take a sip and note its citrusy flavors. Take a bite of the Szechuan button’s flower petals. Your tongue will feel tingly. Now taste the drink again. The flavor of the yuzu, lime leaves, tequila, and ginger are vibrant and electric.

TRANSPORTATION

Free Parking

Treasure Island offers free parking at the center of the Strip. The Sahara also has free parking at the northern end of the Strip, but it is next to the monorail.

Monorail

The Las Vegas Monorail runs along the Strip from Sahara Station at the north to MGM Station at the south. A single ride costs $5.50 while a day pass costs $13.50.
