City from above.
As always, we could not resist looking at the city from above. They did what they did not do in Paris - they climbed the local Eiffel Tower. I must say that the daytime view of the city is so-so, Vegas is losing its chic, it is better to admire it from this tower in the evening. On the way back from the Grand Canyon, we visited the highest observation tower in the US at the Stratosphere Hotel, where you can see the perspective of the Strip and the surrounding area. At the height there are extreme rides, I was even scared to look at them, not to mention trying. For fans of hard extreme sports, I highly recommend it. There is an observation deck here (cost $20), but we said we were going to the SkyLounge bar and got in for free. We took a couple of cocktails at the bar, and it certainly turned out to be more profitable, despite the fact that the prices are too high, and the cocktails themselves are so-so. The view is cool even during the day, as a bonus you can see how brave extreme people storm these crazy rides. After our trip to Vegas, another huge Ferris wheel was opened, I think this is also an excellent platform for high-rise views.
