36 Hours in Las Vegas

THE NEW YORK TIMES
By ELAINE GLUSAC

NEVADA---From a tourism perspective, Las Vegas is ever the chameleon. New restaurants, shows, clubs and hotels are constantly reinventing Sin City with the aim of getting repeaters back to the tables. Big construction projects continue, and there are currently two competing Ferris wheels under construction on the Strip. But lately, developments have eschewed kitschy copies of foreign landmarks like an Egyptian pyramid in favor of celebrating Las Vegas’s own swinging style, as indicated by two new downtown museums. Yes, traffic still snarls the Strip, but a new terminal at McCarran International Airport has eased congestion for fliers. [link]

While it's not know for it's religious life, it is instead known as "sin city," Vegas does have a more than average representation of Muslims, and a beautiful Roman Catholic Church downtown. Under-represented are all other religious traditions which makes the search even that more fun!
