No need to imagine how lavish this ship was; full-scale recreations of the Grand Staircase, first-class and third-class rooms, and the Promenade Deck help you envision the grandeur of this “practically unsinkable” ship."

"Trace Nevada's history back millions of years at the Nevada State Museum in Las Vegas. Just a few miles from downtown Las Vegas, the Nevada State Museum is part of Springs Preserve, a 180-acre (70-hectare) complex home to trails, bike paths, archaeological sites, and desert wildlife. The museum features exhibits about Nevada’s cultural history, natural history, and geology, including the state fossil (a complete ichthyosaur) and displays about the Hoover Dam and American Indians."

"The Nevada State Museum in Las Vegas is situated at the Springs Preserve, in Las Vegas. Nevada is one of 7 Nevada State Museums worked by the Nevada Department of Tourism and Cultural Affairs. The name was transformed from the Nevada State Museum and Historical Society in 2008 when the gallery moved from Lorenzi Park in Las Vegas to the Springs Preserve campus."

"To begin with, it was set up on a deserted farm in California and then after some time, the Las Vegas art museum was moved to another place. The Burlesque Hall of Fame appears to have discovered its perfect home in Art Square. The permanent exhibit “Spectacular, Erotic and Slightly Shocking: A Timeline of Burlesque in the United States” takes a historical perspective of the titillating universe of vaudeville, from its initial days in the mid-1900s to the recovery years of the 1990s through today."

"The Burlesque Hall of Fame showcases this tempting form of dance as a visual art with an important historical legacy and highlights the stars of its past. It is part of the city’s rapidly growing downtown arts district, making it walkable from downtown and parts of Las Vegas Blvd. The exhibits are comprised of burlesque outfits and props from the 1960s to today, along with a trail of media articles and photos documenting the rise of burlesque in America’s nightlife culture."

"It's hard to say what's more impressive: the museum's physical location in a historic federal courthouse where mobsters sat for federal hearings in 1950–51, the fact that the board of directors is headed up by a former FBI special agent, or the thoughtfully curated exhibits telling the story of organized crime in America. In addition to hands-on FBI equipment and mob-related artifacts, the museum boasts a series of multimedia exhibits featuring interviews with real-life Tony Sopranos."

"Fascinating multimedia exhibits focus on science, technology and the social history of the 'Atomic Age,' which lasted from WWII until atmospheric bomb testing was driven underground in 1961 and a worldwide ban on nuclear testing was declared in 1992. View footage of atomic testing and examine southern Nevada's nuclear past, present and future, from Native American ways of life to the environmental legacy of atomic testing. Don't miss the ticket booth (how could you?); it's a Nevada Test Site guard-station replica."

"This local favorite is home to the highly Instagrammable sushi burgers you might have seen all over social media. With excellent prices and unique offerings (they also have a sushi tower and sushi pizza), you'll still have plenty of cash left over for the casino. Jjanga offers dine-in, take-out, and delivery options."

"Take the chance to create a customized ice cream sandwich for less than $4. Diners can choose from 13 cookie options such assnickerdoodle or Tuxedo (white and regular chocolate chip) and from 17 ice cream flavors such as black cherry, chocolate malted crunch, strawberry cheesecake or birthday cake."

"4601 Spring Mountain RoadWhile other restaurants focused on takeaway orders in the early days of Chinatown, Joyful House set itself apart by offering an elevated sit-down experience for Hong Kong-style Cantonese dining. Chef and owner Kai Yau is a veteran of former Strip restaurants like Jasmine and Pearl, and now focuses on carrying out his own vision at his family-run business. His wife, Jowai, curates an extensive wine list inspired by the family's own personal collection."
