Stratosphere Tower, Las Vegas Photos

The Stratosphere Tower (1996) (350 m 1,149 ft) is part of the Stratosphere Hotel. Not only is it an observation deck, but there are amusement rides atop the tower one of which thrusts riders into thin air. Another ride lifts, then drops riders in a simulated freefall, only it starts above the observation deck - not for those with fear of heights.
