In the Spirit of Las Vegas

Initially a one-horse outpost in the middle of the desert, Las Vegas has become the symbol of entertainment in the 21st century. The history of this strange city is a fabulous mix of reality and dreams. Its heroes are Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, and Howard Hughes. Its scenes are casinos, extravagant hotels, boxing rings, and spectacular shows-which have served as the backdrop for cult films, including Casino, Ocean's Eleven, and Leaving Las Vegas. The city of the game attracts millions of visitors each year, thousands of couples, and creates both fortunes and ruins.
