Cities around the world are as different as people. Each of them differs in location, population, quality of life, and so on. But there are few very famous among them, which get to the top of popularity because of their character. Sometimes there are like drugs attracting people, for instance Las Vegas. The city of gambling, created for soldiers on duty to get them more relax, city which was built in the middle of a desert at the beginning of the 20th century. Las Vegas gave people the opportunity to have a lot of fun and gamble. Today Las Vegas is a tourist attraction for many people and the paradise for addicted.
Each year there are thousands of buses stuffed with people eager to win some money. Las Vegas is designed for each of us to get a feeling that we are Very Important People. Obviously you have to spend some money to make the casino’s owners happy. That’s the point. More money you lose, the better customer you are. Because  a client is the feeder of that city. And an addicted client with a wallet is even a better guest than a regular tourist.
Addiction is the beginning of a bad way. This means that you lose control over something that pulls you down. You become to be used to it in a way you have to have it for everything.  There are lots of examples of people with different addictions. Alcohol is not always friendly, if you use it more than you should. Drugs are used by those, who could not generally find a better way in life. Not everything that is shiny and smells good is worth your life. There are thousands of things better to do and thousands of more amazing cities to be visited.
