The Brooklyn Bridge at the New York-New York Hotel Las Vegas is one fifth the size of the original

Written by Vacation Idea.com Travel Editors.

Why Go
Did you know that 15 million people cross the Las Vegas Brooklyn Bridge every year? That's 15 times as many as traverse the original Brooklyn Bridge in Manhattan. Perhaps the size has something to do with it - the Las Vegas replica is a fifth of the size of the original, measuring 300 feet in length and 50 feet in height.

How to Find It
The Las Vegas Brooklyn Bridge is located outside the New York-New York Hotel and has views of the MGM Grand across the Strip. Once you reach the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Tropicana Avenue, walk north along the Strip and you'll bump into the bridge.

When to Go
You can go any time. The bridge is located on the Las Vegas Strip - there is no admission and it's open 24 hours per day.

VacationIdea.com Tip
After you cross the bridge, stop for lunch or dinner at the Irish pub which has outdoor tables just steps from the bridge.
