Did you know that Las vegas didn't even exist until the twentiesth century? The site where Las vegas is was nothing more than desert haze. Now it is one of the largest cities in the world.



Las Vegas actually has nineteen of twenty-five of the world's largest hotels. Two million people call it home. Thirty-seven million tourists visit the city each year.

The city is known for it's novelty. It is continously growing and changing. Sure, there are some old structures and things to see but typically it is blast out the old and bring in the new. There is always something new to see and do.

wow thats crazy. 2 million people is a whole lot. it would be a once in a lifetime experince to visit there one day. i would love to but i would have to save up a ton of money.

it looks so big, and all the hotels look absolutely beautiful. i can only imagine how much it much cost to stay there let alone live there!

The really insane number is 37 million tourists each year - hell, that's something ... more than 15 times the population of Vegas. No wonder that they have so many of the largest hotels in the world there, they need to accomodate all those tourists, I am sure the casino make a lot of money with the tourists that just visit the casinos to gamble a few times, no tourist can leave Vegas without having gambled there

Can you imagine the money you could make out there even if you just ran a small diner. Hell a hot dog stand would probably make a killing! It would be incredible.
