Springs Preserve
180 acres where Las Vegas began. Museums, botanical gardens, butterfly habitat, and desert history for the whole family.
Springs Preserve sits on the land where Las Vegas's original spring was. Today it's a 180-acre cultural and environmental attraction.
For families: the butterfly habitat is a must-do in spring/summer. The Origen Museum tells Las Vegas history in an engaging way. The botanical gardens are beautiful year-round.
