Discover the City’s Most Instagrammable Locations
Las Vegas is a city renowned for its vibrant energy and stunning landscapes, offering countless photo opportunities for visitors. From the iconic Las Vegas Sign to the breathtaking views along the Strip, there’s no shortage of Instagram-worthy locations to capture the essence of this desert oasis. Whether you're exploring the neon-lit streets of Downtown Las Vegas or visiting the luxurious resorts on Las Vegas Boulevard, every corner of the city provides a unique backdrop for your photos. In this guide, we will take you on a journey to discover the most photogenic spots in the city, including the famous Las Vegas Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, and beyond.
1. “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” Sign
One of the must-see photo spots in Las Vegas is the iconic "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign, located on Las Vegas Boulevard. Since this location is not very close to other attractions along the Strip, you'll need to either rent a car or take an Uber or Lyft to get there. As a popular tourist destination, the sign often attracts large crowds. To avoid this and capture a photo with just yourself, consider arriving early or taking a shot from a side angle instead of a straight-on view. This way, you'll get a great photo from your trip without the distraction of other tourists in the background.

2. Trevi Fountain
If you can’t make it to Rome but still want to see the Trevi Fountain, you can find a beautiful replica of it in Las Vegas along the Strip. Catch Restaurant, located in the Aria hotel, is another popular spot in the area, known for its seafood, photo-worthy interior, and occasional celebrity sightings. This location typically tends to be less crowded than the iconic "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign. You can visit at any time during the day and still capture a good photo, although the lighting is better in the morning and afternoon. Pretend you’re in Rome by tossing a coin into the fountain: face the camera and throw a penny over your left shoulder with your right hand, or simply strike a pose or do a twirl.

3. The Bellagio Conservatory
The conservatory at the Bellagio Hotel is undoubtedly one of the most photogenic spots in Las Vegas. What’s truly remarkable is that they change the decorations four times a year, making each visit a unique experience as you get to see how they transform it for each season! This location attracts a lot of tourists, so to avoid the crowds, it’s best to arrive early. Trust us, it’s worth it! After exploring the Bellagio Conservatory, consider heading to the Las Vegas Eiffel Tower for more photo opportunities and stunning panoramic views.

4. “New York”
Visiting Las Vegas is like taking a mini tour of some of the most photogenic spots from around the world. While we've already mentioned Italy, you can also make a quick stop in "New York." Although it's not the real New York City, the replica of the Statue of Liberty offers a fun and photo-worthy opportunity during your time in Las Vegas. You'll find the statue just on the other side of the New York Hotel along the Las Vegas Boulevard, right in front of Leo the Lion.
5. The Paris Hotel’s Arc de Triomphe
Much easier than hopping on another flight to Paris, France, you’ll find some of Paris’ most notable monuments right here in Las Vegas. Right along the strip is a replica of the iconic Arc de Triomphe. Make sure to not miss out on this photo location and snap a photo there in your best French girl look.
6. Eiffel Tower View from the Bellagio Hotel
Easily one of the best views that you can get of Vegas’ Eiffel Tower is from the Bellagio Hotel. It's even better when the fountain show is running. There are so many fun angles around the fountain, so make sure to walk around it and try out different angles!

7. Bellagio Fountain Show
Not only is it fun to watch and enjoy the show, but it also makes an amazing Instagram photo. Make sure to take a picture during the day and again at nighttime! There is a show every half hour from 3pm to 8pm and every 15 minutes from 8pm to midnight from Monday to Friday. On Saturdays, Sundays and holidays the show runs every half hour from noon to 8pm and every 15 minutes from 8pm to midnight. Despite the tourists, this can be a romantic spot to get a picture with your significant other, too.
8. High Roller
Did you know that the highest ferris wheel is located in Las Vegas? It also makes it one of the best photo spots there. It's 550-feet tall and tickets cost $25 per person—but it’s completely worth it for the amazing pictures, in our opinion. Both during the night and day, the views are incredible. It’s also a fun way to get a bird’s-eye view of Las Vegas.

9. LINQ Promenade
Located super close to the High Roller is the LINQ Promenade! It's fun to stroll along the promenade and wander into the shops but don’t forget to take a photo! If you’re really feeling adventurous for a photo here, sign up in advance to go on the famous zipline over the promenade.
10. The Venetian Bridge
The Venetian Hotel is one of the most beautiful hotel in Las Vegas in our opinion. It’s lovely to see how this hotel makes you feel like you are actually in Venice, Italy. You can even take gondola rides outside and inside the resort. There are so many photo ops around the entire resort, but of course, a picture in a gondola is a must!
11. The Las Vegas Arts District
Find some of the best photo spots at the Las Vegas Arts District. This area doesn’t get as much recognition as it deserves. Take a break from the tourist attractions and visit this super colorful area with so much culture. It’s a neighborhood in Las Vegas and is super fun to stroll around and visit the artist galleries or take in a show. We took some fun photos there at the eye-catching murals!

12. The Luxor Walkway
Next photo op spot: Egypt. A nice place to take a few pictures is the Luxor walkway where you can see the Pyramid and the Sphinx at the same time.
13. The Neon Museum
If you are interested in art but also want to take some beautiful photos, don’t miss out on the Neon Museum. It features a ton of neon signs from Las Vegas’ history. Before visiting, know that you can’t bring a professional camera, but a phone will do just fine! There are so many fun vintage signs and it’s a great peek into Vegas’ history.

14. Red Rock Canyon
Take a break from the bustle of the strip and take a car out to Red Rock Canyon. It couldn’t be more different from the casinos and resorts in downtown Las Vegas. There are tons of hiking trails there as well as rock climbing. You can visit the park by yourself or take a fun tour. The Pink Jeep tour is highly recommended. This natural wonder is so picturesque, so be sure to take some pictures with and without you in them.
15. Seven Magic Mountains
Lastly, you need to visit the Seven Magic Mountains when you’re in Vegas. This giant art installation in the desert makes for one of the best photo spots in Vegas. We highly recommend coming at sunrise to get the most beautiful colors. It’s magical and also happens to be the best way to avoid crowds!
