The Las Vegas Strip (also known as The Strip) is 4 mi (6.7 km)
of Las Vegas Boulevard South partly in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, that
has been designated an All-American Road. Many of the largest hotel, casino and
resort properties in the world are located on The Strip. Over the years, Las
Vegas Boulevard South has been called Arrowhead Highway, Salt Lake Highway, U.S.
Highway 91, and Los Angeles Highway. The Strip was reportedly named by police
officer Guy McAfee, after his hometown's Sunset Strip, in Los Angeles.
The Strip runs from the Stratosphere at the northern end, to the Mandalay Bay on
the southern end. Of the 4 miles, nearly 3.5 miles of it is located in the
township of Paradise, Clark County, only a small portion is within the city
limits of Las Vegas. McCarran Airport is located at the southern end of The
Strip, along with the famous Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign.
In addition to the large hotels, casinos and resorts, The Strip is home to a few
smaller casinos, motels, and other attractions, such as M&M World, Adventure
Dome and the Fashion Show Mall. Starting in the mid 1990s, The Strip became a
popular New Year's Eve celebration destination
