The pyramid shaped LUXOR
is one of the most distinctive hotels in Las Vegas...That pyramid can be seen
for miles as other less unique structures fade into the desert.

"At 42.3 billion candlepower, the
Luxor Sky Beam is the strongest beam of light in the world. Using computer
designed, curved mirrors to collect the light from 39 Xenon lamps and focus
them into one intense, narrow beam, engineers say that an astronaut could
read a newspaper by Luxor’s Sky Beam from ten miles into space. On a clear
night, the Sky Beam is visible up to 250 miles away to an airplane."

"Inside, the Luxor
looks like the open space of the inside of a pyramid." Floors of Guest
Rooms line the inside perimeter of the pyramid. The bottom of the
structure supports a couple of floors. |
| |
King Tut's Tomb and Museum
is replicated on one of those floors. A 15 minute self-guided audio
tour can be purchased. |

MANDALAY PLACE is a
shopping area with restaurants. Mandalay Place looks much like a
suburban |
| |
mall, in every way, except
for the fine dining restaurants: |
| |
One of those
restaurants is a really nice Burger Bar called, amazingly, THE BURGER BAR.
This up- |
| |
scale burger joint features
(besides the burgers) a bank of snug wooden booths, along one wall.
These |
| |
booths are extremely
inviting. There are also tables and a bar. The burgers start at
about $6.00 - for a |
| |
Veggie Burger; The
Coby (Coby Beef) Burger is $16.00. At the high-end they serve "The
Rossinni," which "retails" for $60.00. The burger includes:
Kobe beef, sautéed foie gras, shaved truffles, Madeira sauce - all on an
onion bun...
Take me to the Us Menu Guide for the complete menu.

MORE THE
BUFFET is at the bottom of an escalator on a lower
floor. Although the room is a bit "plastic," it's actually quite
nice: The large Egyptian themed room with blocks of stone, columns and
sandstone walls is broken up into many small sections - divided by the
columns and "cement" blocks - with plenty of nooks and crannies to hide out
in...This is a good buffet room to linger in a-while. |
