It cost over $1.8 billion to breathe life back into the mythical city of Atlantis: an illusion complete with over 65,000 fish and marine animals in ceiling-high aquariums, hand-cut cliffs, and nearly 6,000 palm trees on 118 acres of land. Those looking for a restaurant meal will enjoy the Chinese delicacies at Yuan and the Arabic offerings at Levantine, which also features belly dancing as entertainment. The property also regularly hosts Sandance music festivals, attended by many international stars.
