Find the Luxor hotel in Las vegas.

btw, whats up with these huge crators

in the early 1960s, nuclear wepons testing was banned above ground. So the US started testing their weapons underground. Needless to say, a large explosion underground creates a large sinkhole. Those giant craters are what you are seeing.
