For many cities, the construction of a major casino resort is the ultimate catalyst for a massive tourism boom.
The promise of increased tax revenue and an influx of international tourists is why many nations embrace mega-resorts.
How Vegas Built a Tourism Empire
Las Vegas proved that if you build massive, luxurious gambling palaces, tourists will travel thousands of miles to visit.
Today, gambling represents less than half of the total revenue generated on the Las Vegas Strip.
The integration of massive convention centers ensures a steady stream of business travelers during the slower mid-week periodsWorld-class nightclubs and dayclubs attract a younger demographic that might not be interested in high-stakes table gamesThe 'Vegas Model' is now being copied by countries around the world looking to boost their own local tourism numbers
The Rise of the Integrated Resort Model
Governments in Asia are incredibly strict, allowing gambling only if the developer builds massive public tourist attractions alongside the casino.
By demanding world-class museums, theme parks, and retail spaces, governments ensure the resort benefits the entire local tourism sector.
