While The Bellagio is an impressive edifice itself, and it boasts a variety of attractive and varied interior architecture, the view from the front of the property affords one a glimpse of what Las Vegas is all about.

This video presents views of what I think is one of the most beautiful areas of the Las Vegas Strip. The Paris Casino and Hotel, when viewed from a distance challenges one to believe that he or she isn't actually in France.

Taken as a whole, on both sides of The Strip, Caesar's Palace, The Paris, The Bellagio, and the just out of sight Venetian, which is next to The Paris, truly does transport one to Europe.

See if you agree.
