The Flamingos at the Flamingo Hotel, Las Vegas
Head through the casino to the peaceful garden at the back of the hotel where you’ll find real flamingos. This is an extract from our free LAS VEGAS CITY GUIDE.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THE FLAMINGO HOTEL
The Flamingo is one of the oldest hotel names to still survive on the Las Vegas strip and as such the hotel is much more traditional in its design than some of the more modern “theme” hotels like New York New York, Paris and the Venetian. Outside the hotel at the rear is a sort of tropical oasis which is lovely to walk around. There are palm trees, waterfalls, pools with colourful Koi and of course the famous flamingos pictured above. At one point there were also penguins! They have now gone to a new (much colder) home where the climate will suit them better. The hotel and wildlife habitat are open 24 hours a day.
