Hoover Dam is an iconic engineering wonder on the Nevada-Arizona border, built during the Great Depression. Towering 726 feet high, it holds back the powerful Colorado River, creating Lake Mead—the largest reservoir in the U.S. Visitors can explore its history, tour the power plant, and enjoy panoramic views from the dam’s top. Just a short drive from Las Vegas, it’s a must-visit landmark blending history, innovation, and breathtaking scenery.
