The Tower is a unique, iconic fixture in the Vegas skyline with a magnificent 360 degree view of the shimmering Las Vegas Strip and Valley.
this is the first time I went up to the observation deck and it was amazing .. BEST PLACE for sunset for sure!!! and if you are a thrill seeker, you can bungy off the side or ride the slider that takes you off the side of the top of the Stratosphere -just plain crazy to watch but alot of people did it- you ride up the elevator at 21 miles and hour - a must see

THE PORTLAND OBSERVATORY IS CLOSED FOR THE 2019 SEASON. SEE YOU IN SPRING 2020! Breathtaking views and fascinating history at America’s last standing maritime signal tower. In the 1800s, Captain Moody used this observatory to monitor the routes of ships as far as 30 miles away. Today visitors can tour a museum focusing on the history of the watch tower and get a stunning bird's-eye view of Portland and the harbor.
We arrived at the Observatory after a long day of touring Portland. As it turned out, we saved the best for last! The structure sits atop Munjoy Hill, with a commanding view of the city and its harbor. It has an interesting history and interesting architectural features, all of which we learned about as we slowly wound our way to the top of the tower, led by Sue, our exceptional and engaging guide. Sue brought the details of the observatory to life with her wonderful gift of storytelling. Without Sue it would have been a pleasant but not exciting visit. With her, it was delightful and memorable!

Observation tower at the top of the World Trade Center offering audio-visual presentations about the history of Baltimore.
We have to thank Groupon for this one. $7.25 for two people could not be beat! The observatory is on the 27th floor and the elevator was a quick trip. The views were amazing and they had nice tribute to victims of the 9/11 tragedy. There was plenty to read for each view (N-S-E-W) and it was cool to see all the places we visited. There was a neat photo exhibit of bridge infrastructures. We really enjoyed our visit here and highly recommend it. If you do not have Groupon it was only $6 per person but the discount was perfect.

Covering 40,000 acres, Mattamusekeet is North Carolina's largest natural lake.
The refuge has a visitor center that is only open when there are volunteers available. Besides the largest natural lake in North Carolina (where you'll see many people fishing along 94), you can see the old lodge that closed in the 70's. The wildlife loop road is short and worth doing. There is a road to the left of the visitor center called the Waterfowl Hunt Area with numbered sites. At the start of it is a nice boardwalk loop trail called the New Holland Trail. Driving to end of the road to site 16 is another short loop trail looking over some nice open water. There is an observation deck there.

The tower and restaurant sit atop the Paris Las Vegas hotel.
Great view of the strip Recommend going at sunset as you can also watch the fountains of Bellagio. Friendly staff Downside was the wait before going up due to picture taking....realize this is a money maker but could have two photographers working to make it faster
