If you are in Vegas and get a chance to step away from the strip for a bit, you gotta check out the Hoover Dam... Its a nice spot, not to far from the strip..about a 30 minute drive...unless there is traffic..it can take up to an hour..
The new bridge is done and the view is awesome.. Gotta make some time to take pictures and walk across is...And its on the border of Arizona and Nevada too...the view of the dam from the bridge looks surreal..Also stop by the viewpoint too to see Lake Mead...the view is awesome from the top..
