November 16, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Bellagio, one of the most dramatic and awe-inspiring resorts on the Las Vegas Strip, is a 3400+ room AAA Five Diamond award winning hotel and casino resort located on the Las Vegas Strip in Nevada. Opening on October 15,’98, its design was inspired by the Lake Como resort in Bellagio in Italy, and features an eight-acre lake located between the hotel and the strip.
Within walking distance from the Mirage, the Imperial Palace, Harrah’s, and more, it was built by Las Vegas casino magnate Steve Wynne and later sold to MGM Mirage. It occupies the lot previously home to the Dunes hotel, the corner of Las Vegas Blvd. and Flamingo Dr. It neighbor’s Ceasar’s Palace, Bally’s, and Paris Las Vegas directly across the strip.
More than 2000 colorful hand-blown flowers adorn the ceiling of the lobby. They will be the first thing you see when you walk into the Bellagio and they are simply stunning to look at.
If you are looking to see a show in Las Vegas, come to the best, none other than O. In Italian, O means water, the center of the show. Performed above a pool of water 1.5 million gallons full, O features 85 acrobats and swimmers and will truly amaze you. While on your visit, also check out the world-famous fountains in Bellagio’s eight acre lake. The streams of water dance to classic tunes, even at nigh!
Anyone with an artistic side absolutely must visit the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art. It features breathtaking works by Picasso, Monet, Van Gogh, and many others. If you’re not an expert yet, you can take an audio tour. Also check out the conservatory and the Botanical Gardens. The flowers here change color according to season and will take your breath away.
With limits to suit all gamblers, Bellagio has a huge casino offering all the games you can imagine. There is plenty of shopping to go around at Via Bellagio.
