Casinos (obviously)
Las Vegas houses over 122 casinos, which is more than other city can boast in the entire country.

There are a variety of game choices as well from poker and bingo to blackjack, slots, roulette and baccarat. There are other interesting games as well which are native to Las Vegas, and are not found anywhere outside Vegas casinos.
Of course these days Las Vegas has lost its competitive advantage as a casino hub with the rise of online casinos.
