Hello to everyone in the Pinmapple community! Today I'm back with a new tourist review and today I'm going to tell you about my visit to the Venetian Hotel, one of the biggest and most luxurious hotels in Las Vegas. This hotel has an endless number of attractions ranging from its architecture, decoration, entertainment (shows), shops of all kinds, characters (singers and actors) and others, which make it really attractive. So join me in this adventure where I will be telling you all about it, let's start!

The Venetian is located on the east side of the Strip (Paradise, Nevada), one of the most famous streets in Las Vegas. It was formerly the site of the Sands Hotel, owned by Kirk Kerkorian, but after it was sold to the Las Vegas Sands Group, construction began on The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino in 1997. The place opened its doors in 1999. An ambitious and complex project intended to serve as a site for accommodation, entertainment and casino rooms, but its primary objective was to function as a convention centre. It featured reproductions of some of the most iconic buildings/places in Venice; The Grand Canal, St. Mark's Square, La Campanille and the Rialto Bridge. This is how The Venetian became a themed hotel with beautiful architecture that remains true to the Venetian style. To put it more precisely, The Venetian is no ordinary hotel and stands out on its own merits.

¡Hola a todos en la comunidad de Pinmapple! El día de hoy vuelvo con una nueva reseña turística y es que hoy les presento lo que fue mi visita al Hotel Venetian, uno de los más grandes y lujosos de Las Vegas. Y es que este hotel cuenta con un sin fin de atractivos que van desde su arquitectura, decoración, entretenimiento (shows), tiendas de todo tipo, personajes (cantantes y actores) y demás, que lo hacen realmente atractivo. Así que acompáñame en esta aventura dónde te estaré contando todo al respecto ¡comencemos!

The Venetian se encuentra ubicado en el este del Strip (Paradise, Nevada), una de las calles más famosas de Las Vegas. Anteriormente en dicho lugar se encontraba el Sands Hotel, perteneciente a Kirk Kerkorian, pero luego de ser vendido a Las Vegas Sands Group se comenzó la construcción del The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino, en 1997. El lugar abrió sus puertas en 1999. Un proyecto ambicioso y complejo con intenciones de servir cómo sitio de alojamiento, entretenimiento y salas de casino, pero su objetivo primordial; funcionar como un centro de convenciones. En el mismo se hicieron reproducciones de algunos de los edificios/lugares más emblemáticos en Venecia; El Gran Canal, la Plaza San Marcos, La Campanille y el Puente Rialto. Es así cómo The Venetian pasó a ser un hotel temático con una bella arquitectura que se mantiene fiel al estilo veneciano. Por decirlo de forma más precisa, The Venetian no es un hotel común y destaca por méritos propios.

The Venetian is connected to the Palazzo Casino and Resort, as this is one of the last extensions that were generated. This is how it has become one of the largest hotel complexes in the world. With a total of approximately 11,150 m2 and some 4049 suites. The cost of each suite depends on several factors: size, availability and quality. However, entering the hotel is easy and free of charge, so you can enter, walk around and admire the whole place without any problem. What makes the experience of visiting The Venetian all the more memorable is that it is truly immersive. Starting with its aesthetics, the frescoes that recreate the Sistine Chapel, the "false sky" that creates the illusion of being outdoors and that also seem to move when you walk, the marble floors, the columns and reliefs throughout the building and so on. I've never been to Venice, but I can get the idea.

They also have gondoliers who travel along the canal, singing beautiful lyrics all the time. That's pretty cool because you can get on them and ride along the canal in the gondola. I also understand that there are musical theatre performances every day. To attend them you have to check the schedule of these events and bonus points, it's totally free. Since the Venetian also serves as more than just a place for lodging and gambling, there are several artistic events that are worth enjoying. From time to time, special events are held depending on the festivities of the month, for example, Christmas or New Year's Eve. Finally, there is the Grand Canal Shoppes, where you will find shops, restaurants and bars. As well as the popular arcades.

The Venetian se encuentra conectado con el Palazzo Casino and Resort, pues esta es una de las últimas ampliaciones que se generaron. Así es cómo se ha convertido en uno de los complejos hoteleros más grandes del mundo. Con un total aproximado de 11.150 m2 y unas 4049 suites. El costo de cada suite depende de varios factores: tamaño, disponibilidad y calidad. Sin embargo, entrar al hotel es fácil y no tiene costo alguno, por lo que podrás entrar, recorrer y admirar todo el lugar sin problema alguno. Lo que hace que la experiencia visitando el The Venetian, sea más memorable, es que es realmente inmersiva. Comenzando por su estética, los frescos que recrean la Capilla Sixtina, "el cielo falso" que genera la ilusión de estar al aire libre y que además parecen moverse cuando caminas, los suelos de mármol, las columnas y relieves por todo el edificio y demás. Nunca he estado en Venecia, pero puedo hacerme a la idea.

También cuentan con gondoleros que viajan a través del canal, cantando líricas preciosas constantemente. Eso es bastante llamativo pues puedes subir en ellos y recorrer el Canal en la góndola. Además tengo entendido que todos los días realizan actos de teatro musical. Para asistir a ellos debes fijarte en el horario en el que se realizan dichos eventos y puntos extras, es totalmente gratis. Ya que el Venetian también sirve cómo más que un espacio para el hospedaje y las apuestas, se realizan varios eventos artísticos que valen la pena disfrutar. De vez en vez, realizan actos especiales dependiendo de las festividades del mes, por ejemplo, en Navidad o Año Nuevo. Finalmente, tenemos el Grand Canal Shoppes, dónde encontraremos tiendas, restaurantes y bares. Así como también, encontraremos las salas de juego tan populares.

One of these shops is the Regis Galleries, where Michael Jackson used to buy some of his art pieces. As it is a place with certain restrictions, I couldn't take as many pictures and videos as I wanted to, but I did manage to take some shots and I will talk about it in another post. Finally my friends, The Venetian turned out to be a great experience. Although I wasn't there for long, I was able to visit it and live a different moment. Honestly I felt very happy among so many things, like being inside a movie of renaissance times. Without more to say, I thank you for visiting my blog and reading my post. I send you a big hug and see you next time.

De una de esas tiendas destaca una en específico que deseaba conocer y es el Regis Galeries, sitio dónde Michael Jackson solía comprar algunas piezas de arte. Cómo es un lugar con ciertas restricciones, no pude tomar tantas fotografías y videos como quería pero, alcance a tomar algunas tomas y en otra publicación hablaré al respecto. Finalmente amigos míos, The Venetian resultó ser una gran experiencia. Aunque no estuve mucho tiempo, pude visitarlo y vivir un momento diferente. Sinceramente yo me sentía muy feliz entre tantas cosas, cómo estar dentro de una película de tiempos del renacimiento. Sin más que decir, les agradezco por visitar mi blog y leer mí publicación. Les envío un fuerte abrazo y nos vemos en una próxima oportunidad.

What a beautiful city, I hope to get to know it one day.thanks for your sharing.

Greetings! Sure you will, I'm sure you will meet him in due course. Thank you very much for stopping by.

It's incredible how much detail and authenticity went into recreating iconic Venetian landmarks like the Grand Canal, St. Mark's Square, the Rialto Bridge and Campanile right in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. The architectural achievement of capturing that classic Italian Renaissance style and ambiance is truly impressive.

Greetings from here. That's right, I find it amazing how this project consolidated so successfully. Everything where you look is beautiful. Thank you very much for your comment, a hug.

La ciudad de Venecia convertida en un centro comercial! jajaja pero mucho más cuidada y renovada. Al principio pensaba que habías estado en Venecia y pensaba, pero que nuevecito se ve todo xD. No han perdido detalle en esta recreación, imposible superar a los estadounidenses en esas cosas.

Ya tengo ganas yo de conocer la verdadera Venecia jajaja pero con este hotel, al menos un poquito me fuí acercando. Creo que lo que dices es algo muy cierto y que percibí leyendo algunas reseñas que comparaban ambos lugares; esta pequeña Venecia fue ejecutada con mucho cuidado dentro de un proyecto urbanístico que tiene todas las comodidades al no estar (cómo la verdadera Venecia) a la intemperie, evitando todo "desgaste" de la naturaleza. En todo caso, para mí ambas tienen sus méritos y bondades.

The place is so attractive and charm to visit, Michael Jackson was visitor of this place, it is amazing. You made so beautiful pics that ever been seen. I really enjoyed to see these pics, thank you for your sharing with us.

Greetings from here. Thank you very much for your comment, I'm glad you liked the pictures. It is really a very beautiful place and you can walk around for hours. That about Michael made me very excited.

I extremely wish to be there to walk.
