background
Landmark
The Hoover Dam dams the Colorado River in the border area between Arizona and Nevada on. It was built between 1931 and 1935 and is used to generate energy. The gaming metropolis was created through its construction Las Vegas. Because of its location between two states, the two sides of the dam have different times in winter, while the time in summer is the same between Nevada and Arizona.
