When thinking about Las Vegas, many people envision busy casinos, wild night life and dazzling lights.
But footage of the bustling city, taken from the window of a plane, has left people baffled.
In a clip on TikTok, posted by @beccastravel, a very square-looking neighbourhood, completely surrounded by vast desert can be seen.
It has buildings and streets, but doesn’t quite fit the vision that many have of Vegas.
Text written over the video read: ‘Flying into Vegas and realising it really is just surrounded by desert’.
It left many confused, with some claiming the area shown in the clip was not Las Vegas.
However, it is in fact a suburb in Southern Las Vegas.
The TikToker captioned the baffling clip with, ‘So weird how it just ends on one street! Imagine that being your back garden!’

While another penned: ‘This looks like a simulation.’
One person was surprised by the video and said: ‘It’s so strange.’

Footage taken from the window of an aeroplane shows a neighbourhood located in a vast desert
The city is situated in the northeastern part of the Mojave Desert, which has a hot and dry climate.
During the summer, it can reach extremely hot temperatures while in the winter it has been known to be mild.
Previously, people who live on the edge of Vegas shared the views from their back gardens, including Crystal Wojtowich (@yourfaveazn) – with many saying it was ‘terrifying’
In her video, she opens up her back door to reveal a high brick wall surrounding her patio.
She then pans the camera over the wall to reveal an absolutely barren desert behind.
