ATLANTIC CITY, <

A delegation from the city came to meet us this week to tell us all that the city offers travelers Quebecois.

Boardwalk Empire as stated in the series of the same name has a lot to offer, it all began with the beaches and promenade known worldwide. There was also a link between the two is in 1870, we built the famous boardwalk to prevent the sand from the beach is found in hotels. The current drive is 6 kilometers long and 20 meters wide or more. The tourism potential of Atlantic City dates from the nineteenth century. The first hotel was built there in 1853, there was exactly 160 years, and in 1854, the railroad went there which led tourism.

The advent of casinos there are a dozen now, brought new life to the city. There are exactly 35 years, opened the first casino. I could see the difference because I've been several times in the 70s, and in the 2000s.

Here are two that I have not seen, and that look impressive.

The Borgata MGM has just 10 years. An institution that has cost more than one billion dollars, with 2,000 rooms, a dozen restaurants, a Cite spa, and a grand casino.

Revel is very recent, and cost over $ 2 billion, it has 1,800 rooms, swimming pools, gardens, a spa and 14 restaurants. Atlantic City is the Vegas of the sea are great artists give performances throughout the year in casinos. On weekends, we have to choose, because there are several shows at the same time. You can eat all the prices in the casino hotels and entertainment are affordable. Besides, this is what I do, I visited several casinos in the world, Vegas, Monte Carlo, and others, and I almost never plays. I go to the Casino de Montreal, without putting anything on the table or slot machines. I go to restaurants, or see the shows or parties. During my last visit, I was at Caesars Palace, a renovated, with more than 1,00 rooms with inspired decor Ancient Rome hotel. It was even better since my stay. He has a twin brother in Vegas, as most hotels in the city. The photo shows the Revel, a slightly futuristic hotel.

I had cruise passengers who played more in a week, the price of the cruise. The hotels have amazing prices for rooms with sea view and many services, I checked at random on known sites, and we have a room at Revel for less than $ 150 in mid-October, and others are less than $ 100 in casino hotels luxury. With tens of thousands of rooms, you made a friendly price. The beach and marina are always popular during the summer. You can access a certain casino-hotels with his boat. The city reminds me of Fort Lauderdale, it is also built on lagoons appointed.

The city that gave the street its name to the original version of Monopoly, you can admire the table size game built, opposite Dennis Courtyard. This game began his most famous release in 1935, the year of crisis. Prohibition made the city famous, then a city of gambling and alcohol as seen in Boardwalk Empire. We changed the names of people only.

The building Lucy The and fun architecture Margate probably retain your attention. An attraction of the nineteenth part of the historic buildings and has had many copies. This is the oldest attractiion the east coast, on the National Historic Register.Here elsewhere.

The walk like any good American arcarde his walk is its maneiges are vis-a-vis the Kentucky Street. The destination becomes increasingly family, in 2014, there will be a large observation wheel like that of London, and the steel pier, which has many attractions just been renovated. The Garden Pier has two interesting museums, the history is my favorite, with the laser show, and there can see the history and evolution of the city. Moment Factory in Montreal this show. The aquarium is another family attraction.

There are accommodation and restaurants to suit all budgets and all tastes. But as I said, with the friend in the big hotels that give the sea price, it would be crazy to go without. One can shop and make a good shopping in stores Outlets style. Golf is popular in the 25 course for golfers of all levels. Come see our golf section for amazing deals this season. Throughout the year, there are events, personally, the Food & Wine festival juilet would be my choice, but the air show which is the most popular in June, he had 900,000 viewers in 2012 and Miss America, which takes place on site, is also popular in September.

Transport:

For stays of a week or more, take your vehicle, a dozen hours away, and you're there. For less than a week, you have two choices through the air, Philadelphia, direct flight from Montreal with U.S. Air and Air Canada, both had the same rate for a fictitious date in October, we had lower rates to a base via with United and Delta. From the airport, you have trains, shuttles offer you hotels, buses, Philadelphia is about 45 minutes. On site, the Jitney buses and 5 trips are 24 hours operation. a trolley offers discovery tours. Ilsvous offer Boardwalk Empire to turn yourself back to prohibition.

I like this kind of transportation; I usually take the first day in a city.

I'll probably return to it in 2014, we'll talk. www.doatlanticcity.com
