Step Inside a Secret Garden Oasis in Vegas

Need an escape from the bright lights and bustle of the Las Vegas Strip? Respite awaits at the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, conveniently nestled on the Strip itself. This enchanting spot pulls out all the stops in true Vegas fashion, thanks to the work and whimsy of Executive Director of Horticulture Jerry Bowlen and Conservatory Designer Ed Libby. Let them dazzle you with seasonal features, like a 32-foot “water goddess of spring” made of moss, 14-foot birds composed of multicolored seeds and thousands (on thousands) of flowers. The delight is truly in the details at this enchanting Las Vegas treasure.
