The Bellagio:
The Fountains of the Bellagio perform a magnificent display (set to music) every 15-minutes in the evenings and also every hour on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Show times can vary on public holidays. Inside of the casino there is a tremendous flower garden, with displays changed every month or two. The casino also offers a fine-art gallery, although fees are charged. Bellagio is also home to one of the finest buffets on "the Strip".

The Mirage:
Almost every hour in the evening the "volcano" in front of the casino erupts in a terrific light show. Additionally there is an impressive aquarium behind the check-in counter and a dolphin habitat that can be viewed for a fee. The volcano was renovated and reopened in December 2008.
