What a wonderfully vibrant an playful "garden" conservatory in the midst of the dry and hostile desert of Las Vegas. Situated in the Bellagio and located near the elevators to the main parking garage, the BC keeps a evolving palette of thematical artistic expressions ( usually themed on the nearest holiday or season ) mainly exdcuted in a botanical nature. Always incorpaorating a myriad of flower and plant species as well as clever uses of lights, advanced water works, fountains and fanciful displays, the glass enclosed area is meant to resemble a hugh greenhouse of sorts. Replete with soaring ceilings capped off with faux patina'd copper trellising and carved with meandering paths footbridges, they pull off a tremendous feat in accomplishing the unrhinkable: for just a moment one can forget that youre smack dab in the middle of a behomoth of a casino/hotel/mall/stampede. Best of all, there's no entrance fee and parking is easy and complimentary. ( park o the garage roof and you wont lose or forget where your car is, some car parks are HUGE ) I suggest a nice stroll thru the garden then a walk over to the buffet, by far top notch and one of the best buffets in Vegas. Don't forget to check out the Dale Chiluly glass shop in the back of the conservatory, wonderful blown glass by thw worlds most famous blower and the artist who made the huge chandelier in the hotels lobby. Also noteworthy is the Bellagio Art Museum entrance located to the left of the garden, home to an impressive collection of modern masterpieces. ( bit pricey to enter for a museum but an important collection nontheless )
