Las Vegas itself is more than just artificial neon lights: the city named after “the meadows” is surrounded by a cornucopia of beautiful natural sites.

But every once in a while, as the song goes, be leaving Las Vegas is the thing to do.  (But not for long!  There’s too much fabulousness to explore here in Sin City to stay away for long.)
