Chicago

Chicago sits on the shores of Lake Michigan and has been for years know as the Windy City.  Chicago clearly enjoys its river and aspired to be a Paris of the prairies. Last year it came good, opening the mile-long Riverwalk promenade lined with waterside café-bars and skyscrapers.

A visit to Millennium Park is well worth it : here you will find Sir Anish Kapoor’s mirrored Cloud Gate sculpture otherwise known as “The Bean” and, Jaume Plensa’s Crown Fountain, a glass-brick, monolith spewing water.

Chicago inspires and delights its visitors with unparalleled attractions such as Sears Tower, Lincoln Park Zoo, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Field Museum of Natural History. It also offers a major theatre scene and an unrivalled tradition of jazz and blues. There are so many locations in Chicago for shopping. Michigan Avenue, also called The Magnificent Mile, is the shopping hub of Chicago. Chicago has a great mix and offering of museums. We'd recommend spending some time exploring the Art Institute of Chicago or the Field Museum home to Sue, the largest Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton in the world!
