Las Vegas: 10 Things to Do

Why would you come to Vegas to be understimulated? That's like going to Mecca to eat pork. But apparently some people think of massage as decadence. It took this town a while to understand that women exist as something more than entertainment for men, but they've finally got it, and Vegas is now — as far as a plethora of high-end options goes — the best spa destination in the country. Canyon Ranch at the Venetian and the Spa at the Bellagio are the best, but you pretty much can't go wrong. I'm guessing that at most places the sauna smells sweetly of cedar, eucalyptus and alcohol from the fruity drinks at the bachelorette party the night before.
