Traveling Tuesdays: Bellagio Las Vegas

Aviary in the Bellagio gardens

Disclaimer: I dropped by the Bellagio to wander the gardens with my family. I received no compensation for this review, except for the utter delight of seeing so much beauty for free. All opinions are my own.

My family loves the free things there are to enjoy in Las Vegas. The Bellagio Hotel on Las Vegas Boulevard has fantastic architecture and beautiful gardens. While the rooms and meals are out of the price range of a number of people (including mine, doggone it!), the gardens are free to browse through and enjoy. Kids and adults alike enjoy the displays, which change on a regular basis.

Decorative plaques describe the scene. Imagine the fun the artist had creating this lovely bird that sits among the flowers.

Artistic creations share the spotlight with Mother Nature's own colorful productions. Duck into shops to find a one of a kind souvenir, comfy tee, or cool drink. I really enjoyed the tall sunflowers!



Just look at the different types of decor that add to the scenery!



The snail looks prettier than the ones that hang around most gardens. The roll of flowers makes me want to jump up and create something artistic.






Kites were hung from the ceiling the day we visited. Imagine being the crew that rides in the bucket  to affix the latest colorful, fanciful items to bring smiles and happiness to guests and visitors.


Here is another ceiling featuring glass flowers. Your neck may be stiff from looking up, down, and around at all the wonderful things there are to see at the Bellagio. I filled one memory stick in less than an hour.

If Las Vegas, NV is in your travel plans, pencil in the Bellagio as a place to stay or at least visit to see what's new in and around the garden.
