The Old Spanish trail eventually led explorers through the Nevada meadows inhabited by a few hardy Paiute families. Then came the Mormons, miners, ranchers, railroad men, and ultimately the mobsters and developers. All carved a presence in that fabulous area of destiny now known as "Las Vegas." The "Entertainment Capital of the World" was forged by far sighted and tough characters of the Old West who created a town that worked for them. It attained cityhood in 1911, and remained unique with its myriad and exciting attractions resulting in a world-class resort destination.

Back in the 1930s, while other areas suffered the pangs of the Depression, Las Vegas blossomed and grew, thanks to liberal divorce laws, nearby construction of Hoover Dam, and the pivotal dynamic force - legalized gambling. Las Vegas' relaxed marriage laws also made it the "Wedding Capital of the World" with over 120,000 couples tying the knot there annually, including a host of celebrities - one seven different times! Aptly named "Sin City", Las Vegas offers the sexiest shows, most salacious entertainment, state-of-the-art nightclubs, and widespread party mentality. It's a place where "sex" isn't relegated to a red light district - but is in your face 24/7.
