WHAT: I am so excited for Downtown Las Vegas! There are great things happening, which include THE CONTAINER PARK! I just loved the idea of how this park/shopping/eatery area has been set up!
Before you enter, you are amazed by the fire breathing grasshopper at the entrance (KID FRIENDLY). When you actually enter the park, the shops are contained in metal containers- so clever! When you look straight ahead (the middle of the park), there is a Super cool playground!! There was also a tree house made of balloons you can take pictures of and or with! As you walk towards the back end of the park, there is a stage where live bands play! Behind the live band, there happens to be a barber shop. COOL! FREE, LIVE MUSIC WHILE YOU GET A HAIRCUT!
I also love how this park gives our locals a chance to express themselves and let you taste, see, and try what they have worked so hard for! There are many boutiques that are locally owned as well as the eateries! I did get to try Jojo's Jerky, which is a locally made beef jerky store. They do not tax because they make the jerky themselves. My friend and I clearly supported, we ended up buying 3 flavors, saving us the rest of the day! =D
I am going back soon to try some of their food spots! I suggest you all to bring the family and just HAVE A GOOD TIME! :)
YAY DTLV!!!
