Once you've been down the strip and have blown a week’s salary at the tables, there is still plenty to do in Las Vegas that most visitors never get to see. Here is a list of Las Vegas’s best secret spots:

Cosmopolitan Hotel
The Cosmopolitan is much different from the standard Las Vegas hotels, having sophistication and style with a touch of wit. The three-story vertical layout holds unusual shops and retro furniture that attracts both chic and hip locals and visitors.

Mob Museum
Sin City’s connections to organized crime are hardly a secret, but the mob museum lets it all hang out, including the barber’s chair Albert Anastasia was murdered in. 

Container Park
As the name implies, Container Park is made up of over 40 shipping containers and offers ethnic cafes, art galleries and libations.

Main Street Station Casino
Aside from the 20x odds at the crap tables, Main Street Stations offers the guys a chance to put their mark on a piece of international history, as part of the men’s room is constructed of pieces of the Berlin wall.

Erotic Heritage Museum
Las Vegas has the reputation of sex being everywhere, but the Erotic Heritage Museum puts it into perspective with educational displays like the “Wall of Shame” chronicling the hanky panky of public figures.

Las Vegas Springs Preserve
Here legendary Old-West figures like Kit Carson filled their canteens at the old 1800s well house, which is still standing despite numerous attempts of developers trying to replace it. The preserve offers a huge botanical gardens, museum exhibits and nature trails.

Battista's Hole in the Wall
Any restaurant dubbing itself a “hole in the wall” probably won’t go over well with anyone looking for five-star cuisine. However, that will be their loss as Battista’s has been serving some of the best food in Vegas since 1970. 

Zombie Apocalypse Store
If the zombie invasion ever actually happens you’ll thank the stars for a place where you can practice taking out the undead with crossbows and stock up on all the needed biter gear and T-shirts.

Stage Door Casino
While there are plenty of great dives throughout Sin City, the can’t-miss Stage Door Casino has $2 shots and $3 beer and is just a jump off the strip.

Chinatown
Originally known as “Chinatown Plaza,” Las Vegas’ Chinatown was the brainchild of Chen Chih-Cheng, a Taiwanese-American developer. Unlike the Chinatowns in San Francisco and New York, Las Vegas Chinatown has an eclectic pan-Asian nature, and not only Chinese. 

The Flamingo Resort
One of Vegas’ first major resorts, the Flamingo was inspired by notorious mobster Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel. Standard rooms at the Flamingo are basic, small, insanely expensive on weekends and absurdly cheap on weekdays.
