This is a well-run and conscientious town, making it a rewarding place to visit and discover. Exploring the City The true charms of this metropolis should be experienced by spending as much time as possible on its streets; it is here that visitors can witness the local flair that makes this such a happy city. Millennium Park, in the Loop community area, has been a popular social hub for locals since the turn of the century. In the winter months, much of Chicago’s Christmas celebrations are held here, such as concerts and a skating rink. When it warms up, Lurie Garden is a brilliant five-acre sanctuary that embodies the City’s motto, ‘Urbs in Horto’, meaning ‘City in a Garden’. Near Millennium Park are the busy areas of Michigan Avenue, Randolph Street and Columbus Drive, where some of the city’s best public art can be found. Afternoons can be whiled away walking these avenues and soaking in the Chicagoan culture. Alternatively, the shops, restaurants, parks, museums, stages and theme park rides of Navy Pier, on the lakefront, have earned it the title of ‘a city within a city’, and make it one of the most thrilling places in Chicago. Best Shopping Spots This city has some great options for those seeking some retail therapy. Water Tower Place is a shopping center crammed with boutiques while 900 Shops on North Michigan is a haven for label lovers and big spenders. The Shops at North Bridge has the highest volume of Nordstrom stores in the United States and the avenues near Chicago Place Mall, a former retail hub recently converted into business offices, are lined with specialty outlets. Showtime A trip to Chicago is incomplete without soaking up some live entertainment. Visiting the Chicago Theatre is a must. From 1925 to 1945, this venue was a huge movie theatre enterprise, but nowadays serves as a stage for plays, magic shows, comedy, speeches and concerts. But the options don’t stop there – on any given day or night, somewhere in Chicago’s 200-plus theatre venues, is a performance that will please even the most hardheaded of travelers. Everything from Broadway world premieres to edgy art performances, full symphony musicals and opera productions can be found in this metropolis. Tourist Tip A major business hub, Chicago’s skyline is one of the most recognizable in the world, with the iconic Sears Tower dominating the panorama. Boasting the best view of the city, the Hancock Tower Observatory is located 1,000 feet above The Magnificent Mile. Soon, thrill seekers will be able to experience a vertigo-inducing view of Chicago from ‘The Tilt’, a 94th-floor perch consisting of a glass box protruding from the side of the building. Also near Hancock Tower are some of Chicago’s most exciting foodie hot spots, like Sprinkles Cupcakes Chicago and NoMI Restaurant. Need to plan your own trip to Chicago?
