In this video we hire out a longtail boat and explore the Tapi River and smaller canals near the city. We work our way to the floating market that is only open on Sundays. The river flows through the town and eventually to the Gulf of Thailand.
Surat Thani สุราษฎร์ธานี is the largest of the southern provinces of Thailand. It lies on the western shore of the Gulf of Thailand. Surat Thani means 'city of good people', a title given to the city by King Rama VI.
The area of Surat Thani was already inhabited in prehistoric times by Semang and Malayan tribes. Founded in the 3rd century, the Srivijaya kingdom dominated the Malay Peninsula until the 13th century.
The main rivers of Surat Thani province are the Tapi River and the Phum Duang River, which join at the town Tha Kham shortly before they flow into Bandon Bay. The delta of these rivers, locally known as Nai Bang (ในบาง), is directly north of the city of Surat Thani. It consists of several channels ...
The Las Vegas Strip is a stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard in Clark County, Nevada, that is known for its concentration of resort hotels and casinos. The Strip, as it is known, is about 4.2 mi (6.8 km) long and is immediately south of the Las Vegas city limits in the unincorporated towns of Paradise and Winchester, but is often referred to simply as "Las Vegas".
Many of the largest hotel casino and resort properties in the world are on the Strip. Its hotels, casinos, restaurants, residential high-rises, entertainment offerings, and skyline have established the Strip as one of the most popular and iconic tourist destinations in the world and is one of the driving forces for Las Vegas's economy.
Most of the Strip has been designated as an All-American Road and the North and South Las Vegas Strip routes are classified as Nevada Scenic Byways and National Scenic Byways.
The first casino to be built on Highway 91 was the Pair-o-Dice Club in 1931, but the first full service casino-resort on what is ...
Bellagio Conservatory
The Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens is a 13,500 sq ft (1,250 m²) space located next to the hotel's lobby and is open free to the public. It receives an average of 20,000 visitors daily.
The conservatory features beautiful creations from the Bellagio gardening team and is artistically inspired by each season of the year.
It is accessible from the hotel lobby, where it is located directly to your right when facing the Front Desk. The conservatory is open daily, 24/7 depending on the season.
This is one of my favorite things to see in Las Vegas. It is free and should be combined with the fountain show from a replica of Lake Como in front of the casino.
