You are currently viewing Visit to the Bellagio Botanical Garden in Las Vegas | A fantastic place!

The first time we came to Vegas, we did not see the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens with Denis, even though we stayed at the Bellagio for 3 nights! Having noted the attractions we had missed, we made up for it on our last visit.

The “Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens” is an area of the Bellagio hotel dedicated to vegetation and the seasons. A true attraction of the hotel, you will not see the Botanical Gardens with the same plants and colors depending on the time of year you visit Las Vegas. The vegetation blossoms easily with its 1300 square meters of surface and its glass roof that transforms it into a greenhouse.

You don’t know what to expect from the visit of this botanical garden in the middle of Las Vegas? Here I give you the essential information to plan your visit to the Bellagio.
