Explanation:
The word 'strip' is used by airmen to mean the 'landing strip' or runway. But here, 'The Strip' is that famous street where all those casinos and grand hotels are located. Do not translate. It would be like trying to translate 'Wall Street' or 'Broadway' or 'Champs Elysés'.

The Strip is a world of its own. Where else can you go to visit Egypt, New York, the Tropics, King and Queens, Rome/Greece, Hollywood, and much more all on one street?
