(Las Vegas, Nevada (NV), USA)

The bright lights and casinos of Las Vegas are famous all over the world and attract millions of tourists each year. Located in the arid state of Nevada, Las Vegas is much more than glitzy casino hotels and wedding chapels when you look beneath the surface. Surprisingly, the downtown district features a number of well-preserved buildings, together with some of the world's biggest hotels and shopping complexes.

Close to the Las Vegas Strip, McCarran Airport (LAS) lies directly south of the city center and is the city's number one airport. Nearby and to the northwest, the North Las Vegas Airport (VGT) is a smaller complex and often known simply as 'Northtown'. The Greyhound bus station in Las Vegas is located along South Main Street and features a good selection of long-haul buses, traveling to destinations such as Los Angeles, San Diego and even San Francisco.
