Should You Visit Las Vegas With Kids?
"Each time I visit Vegas, I make sure to walk through the Bellagio for their famed Conservatory and Gardens. The floral displays and sculptures change with the season as this 14,000 square-foot space is transformed into a showcase of awe-aspiring sights, sounds, and scents. The Conservatory can get quite busy so I recommend visiting as early as your schedule allows for good daylight without the crowds."
"On a hot summer day if you’re looking for some indoor attractions for kids, this is a safe bet. It’s free, in the Bellagio’s lobby and changes with every season and holiday. There are thousands of plants and flowers that are nicely divided into various color themes."

"One of Southern Nevada’s unique trail experiences, the Historic Railroad Trail is dog-friendly hiking trail along a former railroad grade with breathtaking panoramic views of the Lake Mead and Boulder Basin area. Designated as a national recreation trail, the 7.5-mile Historic Railroad Trail shares the rich history of the creation of Lake Mead and the construction of the Hoover Dam and winds through five massive tunnels, each approximately 300 feet in length and 25 feet in diameter, and along a portion of the original railroad route that was used between Boulder City and the Hoover Dam in the mid-1900s.

The park started as Lorenzi’s Lake Park in 1926 with a dance pavilion, pool, lakes, and gardens. It is recorded on the city’s Historic Property Register as a historic region and on the Nevada State Register of Historic places."

"The dazzlingly gorgeous Mott 32, the Chinese restaurant with Hong Kong roots, features a mix of Cantonese, Sichuan, and Beijing influences on its roster of Chinese dishes at the Palazzo. The restaurant with a menu from James Beard Foundation semifinalist Alan Ji serves apple wood roasted duck, Peking-style spicy crispy duck rack, minced duck with lettuce cup, barbecue pluma Iberico pork, and crispy roasted pork belly. Dim sum includes traditional Iberico pork Shanghainese soup dumplings, a soft quail egg and Iberico pork siu mai, south Australian lobster har gow, and Australian wagyu beef puff are among the steamed dim sum, while fried dishes include shredded Peking duck spring rolls and pan-fried Iberico pork dumplings."
"PalazzoThe concept began in Hong Kong and the name honors a historic address in New York's Chinatown, but with a mix of style and substance, Mott 32 feels right at home in Las Vegas. The dining room, tucked away in the back of the Palazzo casino, is a bold, modern space with secluded corners and large, comfortable booths for added intimacy. The Peking Duck, wood-roasted in a custom brick and clay oven, is the specialty, but it's hard to overlook other elevated takes on Cantonese cuisine—most notably, the use of Iberico pork and black shaved truffles in the dim sum menu."
