The Bellagio features a spectacle unlike any other on the Las Vegas Strip. Watching the dancing fountain spray water over 1,000 feet into the air, beautifully choreographed to music, is a must-see when visiting Vegas. Every show is different, so when you’re walking past the Bellagio and a crowd is gathering, find a good spot and enjoy!

What can I say about Las Vegas that hasn’t already been said? With its rise from small desert outpost to mafia gambling center to the entertainment capital of the world, this city of bright lights and nonstop action wows everyone that sets foot on the iconic Strip. It can bring you to life or eat you alive, but no matter your tastes, it’ll leave you wanting more.

On July 25, 1819, at Pantano de Vargas, troops led by Simón Bolívar confronted Spanish royalist troops who were trying to reach Bogotá, which was lightly defended. Even though they were exhausted after crossing a mountain pass, they defeated the royalists. This victory was followed by another at Puente de Boyacá just two weeks later, securing independence from Spain for Nuevo Granada (now Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Panama).
