Home to what was once the world’s tallest building, Sears Tower, Chicago may not be a traditional tourist destination but you will find that the Second City is well worth a visit. As the hub of the Midwest, Chicago is not to be overlooked. Its picturesque skyline is reflected in the waters of Lake Michigan. World-class museums of art and science, fine public art, huge parks and sandy beaches and a multicultural vibe (thanks to the Poles, the Italians, the Greeks and the Irish among many other groups) make it an unbeatable destination for a holiday. First stop should be the lakefront, from Lakeview to Oak Street Beach, the entire area is bustling for things for you to do and to see. Whatever your passion, Chicago will match it.
