"Time Out" Las Vegas (6th ed)

Forget New York City: Las Vegas truly is the city that never sleeps.

Recently ranked as one of the ten most dynamic cities on earth by Newsweek, the most extreme, absurd and outrageous destination in the US draws more than 37 million visitors a year, and not all of them are gamblers: some come for weddings, others for conventions, still others for family breaks and many more for weekend-long parties.

The city's famous hotel-casino resorts continue to get grande, with new restaurants boosting the town's reputation as a gastronome's delight, high-budget shows wowing sell-out crowds, and buzzing nightclubs catering to millions of visiting hedonists.

Viva Las Vegas indeed...
