Mirage 3400 S. Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109 The open-air home of Siegfried & Roy's Royal White Tigers is available for public viewing throughout the day and evening. Siegfried & Roy have dedicated their lives to preserving these rare animals, and their efforts have helped save them from total extinction. A perfectly matched pair of these beautiful animals were bequeathed to this country in 1958 by the Maharaja of Rewa. In turn, Siegfried & Roy were able to secure two offspring, establishing their own Royal White Tiger breeding line. Unlike conventional tigers, which have black and gold markings, the white tiger is white with black stripes, pink paws and ice-blue eyes. The purest of these animals are snow white and have no stripes. The White Tiger Habitat contains many features designed to enhance the comfort of the animals and provide spectacular viewing for guests. The open-air environment features a swimming pool with fountains and simulated mountain terrain for the tigers' enjoyment and the public's entertainment. The facility's white setting gives the animals a sense of security by allowing them to blend into the background, and special slanted glass affords better viewing, eliminates glare and helps control the temperature. The Royal White Tigers are rotated continuously in and out of the facility throughout the day. When not appearing in the Habitat, they enjoy their own spacious living environment and can be seen in the lush tropical environment of Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat.

Mirage 3400 S. Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109 Here's another one that I'm unsure whether it is still there now, but this sculpture/ tableaux was found somewhere near the restaurants of the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas, way back in 1992. There was a mural nearby showing a Mediterranean village, and an archway with floral decoration nearby. If anyone knows what the name of the restaurant was, or the significance of the woman coming home with her bread, I'd appreciate it. :) I shot it with the Minolta Zoom 90, the camera I had when I was in high school. (Yup, I was about 17/18 when I took this.) More on the Mirage can be found here: www.mirage.com/

Mirage 3400 S. Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109 The lush tropical pool area at The Mirage [Hotel in Las Vegas] encompasses two pools and a series of wandering, interconnected lagoons. Swim or walk to palm tree-lined islands where you can bask in the sun. Or stroll between cliffs where water streams into deep grottos. Text from: www.mirage.com/amenities/amenities_pool.aspx

Mirage 3400 S. Las Vegas Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89109 The Mirage sets a high standard for itself and for every other luxury hotel in Vegas. Its timeless beauty, tropical surroundings and exceptional service make it one of the most beloved hotels on the Las Vegas Strip. Upon entering the legendary property, visitors hear the soothing sounds of waterfalls, smell the exotic flora and can stand on a bridge under the 90-foot-high glass atrium while taking in the tropical surroundings. Even the carpet in the casino looks tropical. You are in the Mirage, but it feels like Bali. The extraordinary hotel experience continues with the breathtaking front desk area, which features a 20,000-gallon saltwater aquarium that houses 60 species of tropical fish. The 2,763 hotel rooms are nicely appointed, while the beautifully landscaped pool area is the ideal place to spend afternoons before heading inside.
