Late Afternoon
Begin your excursion in the mid- to late afternoon, with a flying visit to the Mormon Fort (see Old Las Vegas Mormon Fort Historic Park). Allow more time if you are a history buff.
Next, head south to browse the Bonanza Gift Shop. Take a look around Pawn Shop Plaza while it is still light, then, as dusk deepens and the lights of Fremont Street begin to beguile, start exploring the Glitter Gulch nightlife.
Try dining at one of the top restaurants in downtown, such as Lily Langtry at the Golden Nugget Casino (129 Fremont St), with its black-and-white decor, or the romantic Hugo’s Cellar at Four Queens ( 202 Fremont St).
Nighttime
After dinner, stroll along Fremont Street’s pedestrian promenade, stopping in at the shops that catch your eye and the vendors’ carts that capture your fancy. If gaming’s your pleasure, step inside the El Cortez Hotel’s casino (600 Fremont Street).
Check out the train station at the Plaza, then wander down to Main Street Station. Pick up a brochure here with a map and list of treasures – including street lamps from Brussels and a portion of the Berlin wall – that are incorporated into the building’s decor.
Back at Fremont Street Experience , watch a light and sound show, then head to Stratosphere (see View from Stratosphere Tower) to top off the night with a stunning view of the city.
