2. Here's the recommended ones: (1) For sure, go to the 'Red rock Canyon' which is at the west-most rim of the mountains near Las Vegas - at look-out point # 1 we journeyed down to the orange canyon walls where were formed by shifting sand dunes 160mil years ago, (2) Boulder Dam + Boulder City = one day tour and we did the more expensive tour right inside the dam walls, (3) one of the nicest hotels to visit since my last trip 12 years ago is Caesar's Palace, (4) The Freemont Street Experience was worth seeing (make sure you see both shows), (5) there is a downtown art show the first Friday evening of each month, (6) Friday and Saturday nights have a planetarium show at CCSN, (7) the LUXOR's entertainment floor is disappointing compared to what it was like 10-12 years ago.
