Fremont East District 

Fremont Street, cross Las Vegas Boulevard (past Hennesey's / Slotzilla / Neonopolis area)

​​

Container Park

Enter the Park greeted by a fire spewing 40 foot tall Praying Mantis whose flames reach six stories high every night at sundown,awakened by a drum and music celebration.  You’ll experience open-air boutique shopping, restaurants, and live family friendly entertainment. There’s also an interactive playground for kids​​

​

​

Atomic Liquors
Down the street from Fremont East is the “oldest freestanding bar” in Vegas, where locals and celebrities viewed atomic testing from the rooftop, boasts the city’s first ‘tavern license”.  it is also famed for being an off-Strip hangout for the Rat Pack and other celebrities. A Twilight Zone episode and parts of the movie Casino were filmed here, as was the car crash scene in 'The Hangover'. You can’t watch atomic testing or go onto the roof anymore but it's still a 'must-see' chill 50's style dive bar with an outdoor patio, elevated drink menu and rotating craft beer list. There's also a restaurant on the back patio.
