At every hotel and casino in Vegas, you will encounter all sorts of things to see and do. Most of the hotels are designed with a particular theme.......Parisian, Italian, New York, Egyptian, Medieval, Circus, you name it. Beyond that, you can also find other displays and additional themes inserted into those same hotels and casinos. The last time I was at the Bellagio, I had visited the Monet Gallery display and it was impressive.
As I had mentioned before, there is a large contingency of oriental people that visit....and probably live and work in.......Las Vegas. I suppose it was no surprise that I found more than one celebration of the Year Of The Tiger via ornate displays in the lobby of the Bellagio and over at the Venetian.
There is a large botanical garden display attatched to the lobby of the Bellagio. Everything on display there is made from plants, leaves, flowers and such. It is quite a sight to see.
It also costs nothing to see.......it's absolutely free of charge.
Pictures just do not do it any justice.......you should see this with your own eyes.
Chinese lanterns..........
.............the entire display, a work of art.
Pandas...........made from assorted botanicals.
Turn around and look back toward the entrance of the Bellagio.........
.......the front desk is on the right..........and right behind the front desk is........
..........yet another large display..........
.............yep...........they are taking this Year Of The Tiger stuff seriously........
................and it is really something to behold................but behind where you stand at the front desk is...........
..........this huge mirror-tiled horse sculpture that stands directly under what I can only describe as a huge assortment of colored flower petals suspended from the lobby ceiling.
Some folks would be busy enough looking at what they can see at eye level...........
............but you would be amazed at what you see when you look up.
I sat right in front of the horse sculpture and ...........looked up.................a work of art filled my eyes.......
..............and for some..........the art in the lobby was not on their minds.............some have to wonder who they might meet or see in the casino...............but not me.................or Supernurse..............and there was no place else I would rather be than right there sitting next to her.
Stay tuned.......next we will go for a walk down Las Vegas Boulevard.
