Attractions in Atlantic City
Ripley's Believe It or Not! Museum
Ripley's Believe It Or Not! Atlantic City is housed in a 'crazy' building that looks as if it's being demolished by a wrecking ball. That ought to excite the kids, as should the exhibits of shrunken heads. The exhibits are changed from time to time, but if you're lucky the roulette table made from jellybeans will still be on display.

Atlantic City Convention Hall
Built in 1929 and recently refurbished as part of a multi-million dollar project, this magnificent hall is, among other things, the former site of the Miss America Pageant. Take a look at the superb interior of the main hall, and the 33,112-pipe organ, which is the largest of its kind in the world.

Ventura's Greenhouse Grill
Ventura's Greenhouse Grill, found down the shore from Atlantic City in Margate City, is a great spot to lounge around when the sun is out. They do great pizza, pasta and a cheese steak that will strain your belt. The terrace area contains a 'raw' bar, not the haunt of lurking naturists but rather fresh seafood on ice. Grab some oysters and a beer then relax.

Angelo's Fairmount Tavern
Angelo's is the sort of family-run Italian restaurant that New Jersey does so well. Its many rooms hum with the sounds of locals slurping down traditional fare such as linguini with clam sauce and chicken cacciatore, plus local treats like shrimp jammers and mozzarella sticks. Bring your appetite and some friends.

Claridge Casino at Bally's
Claridge's markets itself as the 'friendly' casino of Atlantic City. It's a bit smaller in scale and there are quite a few low-stakes blackjack and roulette tables. It's accessible by a moving walkway that moves one direction only: into the casino.The casino has 500 rooms and a three-floor, claustrophobic gaming area that is popular with low-rolling senior citizens.

Atlantic City Historical Museum & Art Center
This complex opened in 1994 and provides a look at the city's colourful past. Visitors to the museum will be reminded that, in its heyday, Atlantic City had a lot more going for it as a tourist attraction; stars such as Benny Goodman, Frank Sinatra and Duke Ellington headlined and it truly was the nation's playground.

Mexico Lindo
For a relaxed, casual atmosphere and solid, honest, home-style Mexican food, head to Mexico Lindo, a couple of blocks inland from the beach. It's a favourite with the Mexican community living in Atlantic City, which is a good sign.

Absecon Lighthouse
Operating since 1857, and recently restored, this lighthouse is the third tallest in the United States and a classic Atlantic City landmark. Browse in the small museum devoted to the lighthouse's history, then climb the 228 steps to its top.

Trump Taj Mahal
Like a breathless schoolboy, the Trump Taj Mahal loves to tell visitors how much of everything it has. Seven stone elephants! 70 minarets! Four and a half times more steel than the Eiffel Tower! A 30m (100ft) long lobby desk! Go see it all, but be prepared for it to keep trying, room after room, to be the biggest and bestest ever in the whole world.

Comedy Stop
This is Atlantic City's most popular comedy club and the perfect place to laugh off those gambling losses. After the show's over, you can check out the Tropicana Hotel & Casino, close to where the club is housed - it's one of the biggest places in town, with 1020 hotel rooms and its own indoor theme park, Tivoli Pier.

Steel Pier
This amusement pier, directly in front of the Taj Mahal casino, is a part of Donald Trump's empire and was the site of the famous high-diving horse that plunged into the Atlantic before crowds of spectators. Today it's a collection of amusement rides, games of chance, candy stands and 'the biggest Go-Kart track in South Jersey!'.
