Las Vegas is a city of more—more lights, more glitz, more glam, more, more. And with four days, you’ll have more than enough time to dive deep. From over-the-top casinos to old-school Vegas dives to jaw-dropping desert landscapes, this city knows how to keep you entertained.

I’ve never done well with heights, but in Las Vegas, it’s hard to resist The Strat Hotel & Casino, home to the tallest observation tower in the United States. Rising 1,189 feet—nearly a fifth of a mile—above the Las Vegas Strip, it’s worth visiting for the views alone. But at some point, somebody got the idea to add thrill rides, making the concept far more compelling (and a whole lot scarier).

From pool parties to desert escapes, here’s why spring is the perfect time to visit Las Vegas.
