Next to Memphis, the best place to find remnants of the King's time on earth is Las Vegas, Nevada, where Elvis made his comeback in 1969 at the International Hotel (now the Las Vegas Hilton; 3000 Paradise Road). While headlining in Vegas, Elvis lived in the 30th floor Imperial Suite (now the Elvis Presley Suite). This is the same suite in which Priscilla said her goodbyes to the King when they separated and it is the same suite in which Elvis took offense to a Robert Goulet song on the television and expressed his displeasure with a .44 caliber bullet through the picture tube.
 
 
 
 
In September 1978,
Priscilla and Vernon Presley
dedicated a 400-pound bronze statue of Elvis at the Hilton.
The statue strikingly bears very little
resemblance to the King (though it does kind of look like Peter Brady from the Brady Bunch).
 The statue is located right inside the Casino entrance near the main showroom.
 

 

In a nearby glass case is one of Elvis's guitars and next to it is one of the King's trademark jumpsuits.

 

These alone are worth

 the several block trek off the strip

 to reach the Hilton

(but don't wear boots or you will regret your decision not to spring for a cab).

Of course, if you do walk to the Hilton from the Las Vegas strip,
 you may very well pass by Landmark Drugs (252 Convention Center Drive in the Somerset Shopping Center).
This is reportedly where
the King had his prescriptions filled.
Don't expect to find a plaque inside
commemorating this fact, however. I already checked.
