The Glory That Was Rome Is Relived in Las Vegas

              
   apturing the glamour and splendor of ancient Rome is a pretty tall order, but Caesars Palace has been achieving that goal since it opened Aug. 5, 1966 to worldwide acclaim.
   Originally 680 rooms, the world-famous resort has grown to four times that size and now, with 2,456 rooms, is the 20th largest hotel in America.
   The resort has become synonymous with luxury and excitement in capturing the glory that was Greece, the grandeur that was Rome.
   A $600 million expansion and renovation completed in December 1997 not only pushed the room total to 2,456, but enlarged meeting and banquet facilities, doubled the size of its swimming pool and gardens retreat, enlarged its casino space and doubled the size of the forum shops at Caesars.
   Known worldwide for its top entertainment and championship sporting events, Caesars has gained a well deserved international reputation.
   Graced by spectacular fountains, majestic imported cypress trees, beautiful landscaping and gleaming marble reproductions of classic statuary, Caesars Palace sits as an architectural marvel among world resorts known for their originality and beauty.
   Caesars is owned by gaming giant Park Place Entertainment Corporation.
