Amusement Parks, New York-New York Hotel and Casino
Fodor's Review:
There are two reasons to ride the Coney Island-style New York-New York roller coaster: first, with a 144-foot dive and a 360-degree somersault, it's a real scream; and second, it whisks you around the amazing replica of the NYC skyline, giving you fabulous views of the Statue of Liberty, Chrysler building, and, at night, the Las Vegas lights -- you climb to peak heights around 200 feet above the Strip. Get ready to go 67 mph over a dizzying succession of high-banked turns and camelback hills, twirl through a "heartline twist" (like a jet doing a barrel roll), and finally rocket along a 540-degree spiral before pulling back into the station.
