Lonely Planet review

During the atomic heyday of the 1950s, gamblers and tourists downtown watched mushroom clouds rising behind downtown's Fremont St, and the city even crowned a Miss Atomic Bomb. Buy your tickets at the replica of a Nevada Test Site guard station outside this awesome 8000-sq-ft (743-sq-m) Smithsonian affiliate. Don't skip seeing the Ground Zero Theater, which mimics a concrete test bunker.
