| The Treasure Island Hotel, Las Vegas |
We love walking and we love architecture. A walking tour along the Las Vegas entertainment strip provided us the opportunity to do both.
We had our first delicious brunch buffet at the Stratosphere Hotel, one of the best in Vegas as recommended by our taxi driver the night before, we were not disappointed at all.
Walking along the Las Vegas Boulevard, we came across many spectacular buildings,
Many of the hotels in Vegas are built with a certain theme. One of our favorites was the Venetian, a casino resort hotel modeled and built with the theme of Venice in mind.
The Venetian hotel has a number of buildings with an impressive Italian facade.
The ceilings covered with classical Italian paintings in the Venetian reminded me of the trip we made to Italian a few years back
We felt as if we were transported back to Italy.
The architects have created a small Italian medieval town completed with a very realistic indoor sky with patches of clouds hanging over the buildings.
Costumed actors strolled the town and performed on the stage in the piazza.
The most popular feature in Venetian has to be the indoor and outdoor canals with singing rowers in gondolas serenading visitors on the water ride.
The Venetian hotel is a magnificent hotel dedicated to the theme of all things Italian such as an Italian bakery, Carlos Bakery Shop, owned by the famous star of the TV show - Cake Boss.

| A Spaghetti Cake at the Carols Bakery |
We saw a cake decorator turning a ordinary cake to a piece of art right in front of our eyes.
This was a cake decorated as a bowl of spaghetti! How about that?
However, it also has a modern twist like the floor in the building.
Using dark and light colour tiles, the designers created a three dimensional design and an illusion.

The Venetian Hotel is an interesting place to visit in Vegas.
