Nevada Hotspot Goes ‘All Out’ for Christmas
If you’re someone who loves getting into the holiday spirit, then note that one Nevada hotspot has been named one of the best in the country to travel to during the holidays because it goes “all out” for Christmas. There’s nothing wrong with loving the holidays and living them up as much as possible. In that spirit, let’s check out this festival town that is “all in” for the holidays each year.
The Nevada Hotspot of Las Vegas Loves Christmas
A big part of going “all out” for Christmas is decorating with as many lovely Christmas lights as possible. According to Christmas-Light-Source.com, the tradition of illumination during the holidays goes way back. “The tradition of Christmas lights began modestly, with candles serving as the primary source of illumination” they note, adding that, “the original purpose of these candles was to bring illumination to the ornaments adorning the tree.” Also, “This tradition can be traced back to Germany in the 17th century, and over the next two centuries, it became a widespread practice in Germany and eventually spread to other countries in Eastern Europe.” So, the tradition of Christmas lights goes back centuries, even before today’s modern Christmas lights were around.
The travel experts at Conde Nest Traveler have put together a roster of 23 cities that “go all out for Christmas.” In the feature, Conde Nest Traveler notes, “Think of the phrase ‘Christmas in America’, and you’ll likely imagine the usual suspects: giant trees festooned in twinkling lights, people of all ages caroling and singing ‘Silent Night,’ ubiquitous tributes to the jolly man in red named Santa Claus, and gingerbread.” But, they say that it you “take a closer look and you may be surprised: Christmas celebrations across the United States can look very different, depending on the environment, local history, and present-day cultures of the people who live there.” That’s why they say even towns that don’t get any snow can be very festive around the holidays.
As for Nevada, according to the experts at Conde Nest Traveler, Las Vegas is a city that truly goes “all out” for Christmas. “If you thought Las Vegas was dazzling before, just wait until you see it decked out for Christmas,” they say of the Nevada spot, adding that “the entire Strip transforms into a winter wonderland full of festive events for the entire family.” Las Vegas offers so many fun activities during the holidays, from rooftop ice skating at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas to a big massive holiday display and Christmas tree at the Bellagio’s Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.
