Vegas

I was in Vegas last spring and got to spend the day in what I think is the most beautiful building I've ever seen. The Wynn Casino is spectacular, both inside and out. From the gardens to the foyer to the shops it is incredible. I spent the better part of a day with a camera wandering the premises.
The view of the casino as you approach from the Strip. The sidewalks wind away from the street so it's a pleasant walk.


The beautiful horse guards the entry way.


The gardens are wonderful, with wide clean sidewalks to walk as you enjoy the flowers.

Just inside the doors a wide walkway guides you to the reservation desk. Light and flowers shadows the way for each visitor.

The gardens leading to the entrance include huge glass flowers, lights hidden in the shrubs and polished sidewalks.

Just inside the casino is the most incredible restaurant and bar decorated with an impressive assembly of umbrellas. I spent a long time enjoying the complexity of the decor. With the tall windows and natural lighting it was a beautiful place. Expensive, but beautiful.



The curving stairwell gave me a wonderful way to view the decor.
