Shopping in Las Vegas
Despite growing up principally as a gambling and adult
mecca, with the only form of retail therapy being the hotel shop, selling
"I Won in Vegas" caps, the city now holds quite a status as
a shopping centre.
Some notable establishments include:
- The Fashion Show Mall
Location: The Strip, just north of Treasure Island
A large mall featuring principally fashion outlets and large American
chains. Also some other specialist stores worth visiting.
- Forum Shops at Caesar's
Location: Caesar's Palace
Situated completely indoors, yet you'll be convinced otherwise. Built
to resemble the streets of ancient Rome or Venice, there are statues,
canals and a moody lighting effect that sees the artificial sky turn
from day to night and back again every 30 minutes. Shops are largely
expensive designer boutiques, but there are a few intermingled gems
to keep the less rich folk happy.
- Aladin's Shopping Mall
Location: Aladin Hotel
Very similar to Caesar's Forum Shops, this more recently built version
themes itself on an African bazaar, again with moody lighting and
the eerie feeling that you're outside. Shops are similar to those
of Caesar's.
