Inside the Shops at Crystals

I hope you can forgive me for seemingly just taking photos of shopping malls when there are so many interesting places in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, I’m struggling to keep up with the afternoon heat while walking around. Because of this, I tend to just go in the shopping malls where it is much more pleasant. I finally reached the Aria Resort and Casino complex which seems to be a bit more modern and high end. Admittedly, because it is modern, the buildings seems to be rather generic compared to the classic hotels that can be found along the strip. This is not to say the buildings aren’t nice, they are, except that it looks more like a glass building than a casino.

The Aria appears to be more high end and I confirmed this when I entered the shopping mall component which is known as the Shops at Crystals. The name comes from the look of the building which can be like a glass crystal. As you can see, the mall is modern and more fancier compared to the others that I have been too. I think it is a little challenging for the famous ones because people would go there specifically to see the historic hotel or shopping mall. This might limit the amount of modernization which they might do.
