Springs Preserve - Las Vegas's birthplace

The Springs Preserve is known as the birthplace of Las Vegas. Gazing out at the bone-dry, desert landscape of Las Vegas, it's hard to imagine that the area was once home to natural springs and abundant water. Recently I discovered that, the Preserve is home to entertainment, exhibits, galleries, trails and gardens that provide recreational and educational opportunities to visitors. And you can really "get a respite from the hustle and bustle of the Strip".
