In downtown Las Vegas, John spent a lot of time on The Strip, which is a 2.5 mile stretch of
shopping, entertainment venues, luxury hotels, and fine dining experiences. This is probably the
most commonly visited tourist area in the city. The Strip at night looks especially beautiful.
All of the buildings light up with bright, neon, eye-catching signs to attract visitor attention.

A stay in Las Vegas can feel similar to a visit to many popular cities worldwide. Many of the hotels
have miniature versions of important international sites and monuments. These famous landmarks
include the Eiffel Tower, Venice, and even ancient Rome.

One day, John took a side trip outside of the city to visit the Grand Canyon, one of the Seven
Wonders of the Natural World. The canyon offers a breathtaking view of Nevada’s ridges and
natural landscape. John especially liked the canyon because it was removed from all of the noise

However, he managed to see a lot of amazing sites during his visit to this city that never sleeps.
