Nevada, which is Spanish for snow covered, is among the top ten largest and least densely populated of all 50 states in the US. About three-quarters of its population are found in Clark County which is also where the Las Vegas-Paradise metropolitan area could be found. The state may be largely desert area but it doesn’t mean that it is not being frequented. It has become a major tourist destination because of the legalization of gambling and the leniency of marriage and divorce laws in the state. Most of Nevada’s economy relies on cattle ranching, mining and tourism. When it comes to top attractions, the 4.2-mile Las Vegas Strip is almost always the first thing that comes to mind. It is among the largest concentration of resort hotels and casinos including the Mandalay Bay Events Center, MGM Grand Garden Arena, City of Rock, The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood and several other popular names. Those who are not into gambling might also love visiting Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Valley of Fire State Park and Hoover Dam.Top 10 Tourist Attractions in Nevada
