Part 2/9:
Walking through Las Vegas recently feels eerily deserted, even on what should be its busiest nights. Visitors can see sprawling resorts and casinos that remain conspicuously empty. Tourists are scarce; the airport records show a staggering 11% drop in visitors, with June alone reporting approximately 400,000 fewer travelers. Many of the multi-billion dollar resorts, expected to be bustling hubs, sit half-empty, their themes and attractions eerily silent. The legendary Las Vegas Strip, usually teeming with life, now appears more like a ghost town, with restaurants and entertainment venues noticeably lacking crowds.
