I'd never heard of the Fremont Street Experience until I saw my friend's photos in Vegas with a bright coloured lights in the background. Intrigued, I decided I HAD to go here to check it out.
Fremont Street is located in what is known as Downtown Vegas, where the original casinos, lights, and glamour all happened. The pedestrian only street is covered by a huge canopy covered in LED lights, that is host to a light and sound show, playing multiple times every night.

I walked here on my way from the outlets, and on the way, I found bail bonds! Who knew such a store existed? Given as it does, makes you wonder what kind of area you're in.

In my opinion, the crowds here are grittier, the side streets off of Fremont more quiet, and overall a shadier environment. However, it was quite an experience to see and feel the liveliness original Vegas, what it was like back in the day, and where it all started before the commercialization of the Strip.

At the end of the Fremont Street experience, I found very dark streets with few people. I was glad to live it, but let's just say that I was a little more than relieved to find a cab to take me back to the Venetian.
