The Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, is illuminated by a beam of light in 2008. Opened in 1993, the hotel is designed to resemble the Great Pyramid of Giza, a nod to ancient Egyptian architecture that is a common theme among Las Vegas resorts. The beam of light emanating from the apex of the pyramid is one of the most powerful in the world, serving as a prominent visual marker for the resort and the Las Vegas Strip. The Luxor has undergone renovations and expansions over the years, adapting to the changing landscape of the city's entertainment industry.
