Fremont Street Experience
Fremont Street Experience opened in 1995, built by covering five blocks of downtown Las Vegas's original casino corridor with a massive barrel-vaulted steel canopy, converting what had been an open street into a pedestrian mall specifically to help downtown Las Vegas compete with the newer, larger resorts that had begun drawing tourists away toward the Strip. The canopy itself doubles as an enormous LED video screen, one of the largest in the world at the time of its various upgrades, running synchronized light and music shows nightly above the heads of pedestrians walking the historic street below. Fremont Street sits in the heart of what's now branded as the Fremont East and downtown gaming district, home to some of the oldest continuously operating casinos in Las Vegas history, giving the area a genuinely different, more vintage character than the newer mega-resorts further south on the Strip. For a Las Vegas attractions list, Fremont Street Experience is the essential "old Vegas under a light show" entry — a 1995 pedestrian canopy built to keep downtown's original casino corridor relevant, now topped by one of the largest video screens in the world.

The High Roller
The High Roller opened in 2014 as part of the LINQ Promenade development, and at 550 feet tall, it held the title of the world's tallest observation wheel until London's Marianne North Wheel and other later projects contested that ranking in subsequent years. The wheel's 28 enclosed cabins, each capable of holding up to 40 passengers, complete a full rotation in roughly 30 minutes, giving riders sweeping views across the entire Las Vegas Strip and the surrounding valley from a height most other Strip attractions can't match. Several of the cabins are outfitted as bars, offering an "Happy Half Hour" package that includes an open bar for the duration of a single rotation, a genuinely Vegas-specific twist on the observation-wheel format that distinguishes it from similar wheels in other cities built purely as sightseeing attractions. For a Las Vegas attractions list, the High Roller is the essential "the bar with the best view in town" entry — a 2014, 550-foot observation wheel that turned the standard sightseeing-wheel format into a genuinely Vegas experience with open-bar cabins included.
