Located
at the northern end of the famous Las
Vegas strip there is a hotel and casino
that is a little taller than the rest.
If you have seen Las Vegas you know that
the strip can be seen from a long way
away, but this hotel can be seen from
just about everywhere in Las Vegas…
due to the fact that it is 1,149 feet
tall! Anyone who has seen a special on
one of the education channels has seen
this hotel.
The first thing one notices from a distance
is there seems to be a rope like structure
moving around the outside of the hotel;
the “High Roller” roller coaster
is incredible to watch from a distance
and even more incredible to ride. It goes
around the outside of the observation
deck and you can hear the excited screams
of riders from a long way away.
In
fact The Stratosphere has a small amusement
park on top of it. There “The Big
Shot” which fires riders up along
a tower so that they can see the entire
city of Las Vegas and all the glittering
lights that make it what it is; the view
from the top is absolutely fabulous and
well worth the admission. The tower is
also equipped with a special lighting
system designed to provide a spectacular
dancing light show nightly, which is visible
throughout the Las Vegas Valley and along
the length of the strip.
Have you ever wanted to get married at
a thousand feet? The Stratosphere is the
place for you if you like to do just about
everything in a tower. You can go to a
spa, spend the night, dance, or play…
you guessed it… all of your favourite
casino games (with special high stakes
games for the real heavy hitters). So,
if you’ve ever wanted to have some
cocktail and then be dipped over concrete
a thousand feet up just before hitting
the craps tables then The Stratosphere
is for you.
