Bellagio is the quintessential tourist attraction on the Las Vegas strip. While it is a very expensive resort, Bellagio has amazing gardens inside as well as the amazing fountains at the Bellagio.

Bellagio is synonym with the amazing fountains in front of the resort. The fountains have become one of the best attractions on the Las Vegas Strip. Everyone coming to Vegas will have seen the beautifully choreographed water fountain shows. Each show lasts about 5 minutes and they always set you in a great mood. Watching a show at the Fountains is definitely top on my list of best things to do at Bellagio Las Vegas.
In the early afternoon the Fountains at the Bellagio show happens every 30 minutes, while in the evening, the show repeats every 15 minutes, alternating different songs and patters.
2. The Conservatory
Beautiful gardens inside The Bellagio Hotel lobby. Gardens inside The Bellagio change every few months.

The conservatory at the Bellagio consists of a beautiful garden that gets completely changed a few times a year. The themes are seasonal and no two arrangements are similar. These gardens are exquisite and it is well worth your time to walk slowly and take in these beautiful floral creations. Strolling through these small but beautiful gardens is definitely one of my favorite things to do at Bellagio Las Vegas.

In addition, the Bellagio features the amazing “O” show by Cirque de Soleil. This is a beautiful family friendly show with amazing acrobatics and lots of water. I have thoroughly enjoyed the “O” show at Bellagio.

The buffet at the Bellagio, while on the expensive end, is absolutely exquisite in terms of food selection and refinement. During the 2021 pandemic however, all the Vegas buffets have been closed. Recently however, since March 2022, the buffet at Bellagio is open.
5. The Chocolate Fountain
World’s largest chocolate factory at the Bellagio

If you’re visiting Bellagio and admiring the beautiful gardens, make sure you step right behind the gardens towards the back of the resort and take a look at the world’s largest chocolate fountain. Just like many things in Vegas, the Bellagio chocolate fountain had to be the largest in the world, and of course that it had to be in the Guinness World Book of Records. Kids always love seeing the fountain, and it’s become one of the best things to see at Bellagio Las Vegas for families.
Built by a famous French master chef, the Bellagio chocolate fountain stretches 27 feet high, so make sure you look even above your head in order to see the entire fountain. And while you’re looking at the chocolate fountain, you can also get a croissant at the adjacent coffee shop.
