Staying grounded in the Windy City - Chicago

A spontaneous visit to Chicago during Thanksgiving ended up being a memorable experience. The architecture in Chicago is just one of the best in the world. The buildings and architecture of Chicago reflect the city's history and multicultural heritage, featuring prominent buildings in a variety of styles. Most structures downtown were destroyed by the Great Chicago Fire in 1871. Chicago's architectural styles include Chicago Bungalows, Two-Flats, and Graystones along Logan Boulevard and Lawndale Avenue. The Loop is home to skyscrapers as well as sacred architecture including "Polish Cathedrals". Chicago is home to one of the largest and most diverse collections of skyscrapers in the world. Should we talk about Pizza? Chicago’s dip dish pizza is a must try when in town. There are several places where you can try it but my recommendation will be Giordano’s. Dont forget to visit the parks, museums, the lake and of course, the Observation deck at the Willis Tower. My #2024wish is to travel to the wonderful paradise of Papua New Guinea. #chicago ##cityview #travelphotography #travelpics #sunsetlovers #chicagotrip #historicallandmarks #mytravelhacks #travel #citytrip

Chicago is one of my favorite US cities. It is a well planned city. I highly recommend strolling around the city and just be amazed by its urban architecture. Chicago has some of the most beautiful buildings in America. For me, I prefer staying around Magnificent Mile, which is a stone throw away Chicago River. Like other tourists, don’t miss visiting The Bean (Cloud Gate).#chicago #america #Chicagotrip

The city of wind - Chicago

Chicago is famous for its stunning architecture, iconic skyline and the coastline of Michigan Lake. Here are some of our favorite spots across the city to take gorgeous pictures: 1. Observe the city from the Skydeck at Willis Tower The Willis Tower is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere. The Skydeck, located on the 103rd floor of the Willis Tower, offers both stunning and heart-pounding views. You can choose to stand out on the Ledge’s glass box, 1,353 feet in the air—if you dare. This is a great opportunity for a photo op, especially because of the jaw-dropping views located right beneath your feet. 2.Explore the Chicago Riverwalk On any day in the city, you’ll find many people leisurely strolling down the Chicago Riverwalk. This 1.25-mile-long pathway extends from Lake Shore Drive to Lake Street in Downtown Chicago. During the early fall, you’ll be able to see flowers and greenery lining parts of the path, as well as open restaurant patios. You can also enjoy looking at spectacular sights of some of the city’s best architecture. 3.Millennium Park. A favorite gathering spot in the heart of downtown, the expansive lakefront green space is carved out between the lake and skyscrapers. It’s alive with activities and concerts and is a remarkable outdoor gallery for Chicago’s public art collection. The reflection of the blue sky and skyline against the stainless steel elliptical Cloud Gate, aka the Bean is really cool. Some of the best views of the Park are from the restaurant or Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago, one of the finest and largest museums of art in the U.S. #chicago

There are variety of food, even Halal food that you can try. I'll start with the Chicago style deep dish pizza. Pizza in Chicago is cookes in deep pan, and the filling is very thick. Definitely a muat try. There are multiple chocolate shops, like Hershey's, Ghirardelli, and Lavazza. I'm most enjoyed the thick hot chocolate drink from Lavazza Cafe. Not to forget the canolli and nutella crepe. After the food hunt, you can enjoy the magnificent sunset view of Chicago from the Willis Tower. #chicago #food #couple #couplestrip #fallingforfall

It was designed by famous Architects. It has platforms and a waiting hall which is grand and so beautiful. It has two statues by Henry Hering —Night and Day — look down on passengers, symbolizing the 24-hour operation of the railroads. The statue Night holds an owl, while Day holds a rooster.

Chicago, Illinois

Surprisingly a great city for a walker. I’d go to Cloud Gate early and beat the people for some photos. From there you can go to Navy Pier, when I was there people started arriving at almost exactly 10am but so did heavy fog. Everything was closed too but if you are looking to enjoy your self without people that’s the time to do it. The river walk was lovely too! Any time seems to be ok it wasn’t too crowded and if you are taking pictures the people probably aren’t where you are looking then. If you haven’t been to a big city before, like me at the time, the city will probably be intimidating but once you start to recognize things you will be good. Us a land mark to mark an important place like the subway so you can find it and know how to get home #chicago #illinois #walk

It is the third largest city and metropolitan area in the United States with a city population approaching 3 million and a metro population approaching 10 million. Chicago is a huge vibrant city and metropolitan area that sprawls over 10,874km². ” During my lovely time in Chicago, here’s what I did: Millenium Park, The Bean, The Loop, Architecture cruise (100% worth it), ghosts tour (Chicago is known for its many ghost stories). I also checked out The Green Mill (Al Capone’s old hangout bar). I was mostly walking around enjoying Chicago’s beauty! Restaurants- I found some nice pubs near the river but my favorite was by far Lou Malnati’s deep dish pizza!! There was a long wait but it was well worth it in my opinion. Have a blast in Chicago! #chicago #usa #solotravel #foodieheaven #beautifuldestination

"Chicago" on Broadway in New York

Attending 'Chicago' on Broadway was an electrifying experience from start to finish. The moment I stepped into the theater, I was captivated by the ambiance and excitement buzzing in the air. The iconic set design and atmospheric lighting immediately transported me to the gritty streets of 1920s Chicago. The performances were nothing short of sensational. The cast's talent and energy were palpable, and they brought the characters to life with charisma and flair. The choreography was sharp and precise, perfectly complementing the jazzy score and sultry vocals. Each musical number was a showstopper, leaving the audience in awe. The storyline, filled with intrigue, betrayal, and redemption, kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the entire performance. The seamless blend of dark humor and poignant moments added depth to the narrative, making it both entertaining and thought-provoking. Overall, 'Chicago' on Broadway was a thrilling theatrical experience that exceeded all my expectations. It's no wonder this production has stood the test of time and continues to captivate audiences night after night. I left the theater feeling exhilarated and inspired, eager to revisit the magic of Broadway again soon. #historicallandmarks #freehotelstay #mytravelhacks #falltrip #Chicago #newyork #Broadway
