DOWNTOWN LAS VEGAS
Las Vegas downtown is home to a lot of the older hotel casinos, many of which are still in use today. While the Fremont Street Experience takes up four city blocks, the main attractions are not the downtown Las Vegas hotels, but the free lights and sound show that begin just after sunset, and the themed shows that are put on there. Neonopolis downtown is a 250,000 sq. ft. shopping center which has three miles of neon lights. This region of Las Vegas was once called "glitter gulch" because the casinos here were so brightly lit that it seemed like daytime when they were all turned on at night. You should check out the exhibit of antique guns near the Binion’s Hotel entrance, and enjoy cowboy cuts of beef in Binion's Ranch Steakhouse. The El Cortez is also one of the remaining downtown Las Vegas hotels and should not be missed. If you have ever wondered what Las Vegas was like in the Roaring 20's or the Rat Pack era, then experience Golden Gate Hotel & Casino, where Las Vegas started and the Fremont Street Experience begins.
PLAYING GOLF IN LAS VEGAS
Golfing is one of the big reasons why many people come to Las Vegas. Treat yourself and your game to the Bali Hai Golf Club. Cascata Golf, which is a par-72 course, ranked one of the top 100 modern courses in America and the #2 course in Nevada by Golfweek magazine, providing stunning vistas at every turn, including the 3,600-foot peak at Red Mountain, 418-foot waterfall, lush fairways, lakes, and streams. Play Las Vegas' most strategic courses with thousands of mature pine trees line well-groomed fairways, with water coming into play on 9 of the 18 holes at the Desert Pines. Sculpted from the colorful desert terrain of Southern Nevada, Lake Las Vegas lies nestled within the desert mountainside just 17 miles from the world renowned Las Vegas Strip. At Paiute Golf Resort, players have a choice of three Pete Dye-designed courses in this 54-hole golf wonderland. When you breathe in the fresh air tinged with a hint of freshly mowed grass, you will understand why some people choose to purchase Las Vegas golf course homes.
