Las Vegas Strip - USA

 Las Vegas is one of the most famous cities in USA but I only have these 2 cards from there. It seems that postcards are not sold in the city's casinos and hotels.These 2 are both located on the Strip, a 6.8 km long stretch of Las Vegas Boulevard, known for its concentration of resort hotels and casinos.
 Many of the largest hotel, casino, and resort properties in the world are on the Strip, known for its contemporary architecture, lights, and wide variety of attractions. Its hotels, casinos, restaurants, residential high-rises, entertainment offerings, and skyline have established the Strip as one of the most popular and iconic tourist destinations in the world and is one of the driving forces for Las Vegas's economy. - in: wikipedia
