I\u2019ve been to Las Vegas, Nevada thousands of times for work and personal. Here are few of my favorite things to do when I visit.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\">The Seven Magic Mountains located about 25 minutes from the strip. The artwork is a must see, designed by Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone\u2019s. Unfortunately, the installation will only remain on view through the end of 2018.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Big Apple Coaster is the name of the roller coaster at the New York-New York Hotel and Casino (one of my favorite epic experiences)<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Watching the local talent on the strip<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">While at the New York, New York Hotel stop by the HERSHEY\u2019S CHOCOLATE WORLD.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Take a walk on the strip and stop by the Bellagio hotel to see the water show.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Madame Tussauds wax museum<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Check out a show:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Zumanity, Cirque du Solei, or a concert.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Visit old Las Vegas.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Day parties are insane, and the nightlife never seems to disappoint.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">Business ventures: If you are looking to expand your business, try to find a tradeshow in your field.

Although many tourist visit for the nightlife and gambling. Vegas is more than that, it\u2019s about not letting opportunities pass you by, meeting random people, and living you best life to the fullest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Tips: I always rent a car because I find it more economical compared to taking taxis or uber.
