Top places to visit

1. Universal Studios Hollywood

Since 1915, visitors have flocked to experience the thrill of the movies at Universal Studios. Back then, guests were charged 25 cents to watch silent movie scenes being filmed: now, you might not see a film being made – and you are charged a lot more! - but the studios offer a whole day or more's worth of entertainment.

3. Bellagio Casino

Opened in 1998, the Bellagio is one of the city’s most opulent and extravagant resorts. The hotel’s image was given an extra boost in 2001, when it featured as the backdrop for the Hollywood film “Ocean’s Eleven”. Inspired by the town of Bellagio on Lake Como in Italy, the hotel is famous for its 3-hectare lake, which hosts an incredible fountain show every night. The ceiling of the hotel’s foyer is another big draw, as it showcases the beautiful Fiori di Como art installation which includes over 2000 coloured glass flowers.
