Since I can remember I have wanted to visit the Hoover Dam due to the fact that it is such an incredible man-made masterpiece. When we arrived at the dam we were not dissapointed. Looking at the dam, as well as the surrounding views were breathtaking.
There were just a few things we found out from researching the dam that we thought were useful.
1. There is security at the entrance so be prepared to stop.
2. There is a $10 parking lot on the Nevada side of the dam, but if you head to the Arizona side then you may be able to find free parking.
3. The dam gets fairly windy at times so bring a windbreaker just in case.
In the end we loved our trip and we hope to come back here in the future.
