Fremont Street Experience
When in Las Vegas always make sure that you make your way downtown to Fremont Street Experience (FSE), this pedestrian mall and attraction occupies the westernmost five blocks of Fremont Street including the area known for years as ‘Glitter Gulch'. Also located at the Fremont Street is the incredible Barrel Vault Canopy which is some 90 ft. high and close to 1500 ft. in length.
This tourist driven destination plays host to many activities and shops, here you will get some classic neon marquees and some gifts shops. While Las Vegas is known for not turning off the outside casino lights, the FSE tends to read from a different script. Here each show begins by turning off the lights on all of the buildings this also includes the casinos under the canopy.
Other activities and places worth visiting when at Fremont street are:
