Chicago




Chicago most definitely has the freshest gear. Teenagers and young adults will have a field day with all the latest clothes inspired from a fusion of hip-hop and fashion design. Cha-town is just as famous, if not more, for its deep-dish style pizzas, eminent and modern architecture, and awe inspiring shopping districts. The Magnificent Mile really is magnificent. The area runs from the Chicago River to Oak Street is jam packed with expensive restaurants, huge shopping malls, luxurious hotels, elaborate stores and beautiful skyscrapers.

In 2006 Chicago was named Best Sports City in The Sporting News magazine. The city is home to two baseball teams, the cursed Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox, the NBA’s Chicago Bulls, and pro football’s Chicago Bears just to name a few. If you can’t catch a game then try to see a comedy show or a play. Chicago has one of the best improvisational comedy and theatre scenes anywhere in the U.S. The music scene is also thriving with the emergence of modern hip hop as well as cultural Chicago jazz and blues. In the last 20 years Chicago has also been the center of a huge rave culture that started in the 80’s.

If you’re into skyscrapers Chicago is your city. The Sears tower, the Aon Center, and the John Hancock Center are some of the tallest buildings in the world. Check out the excellent http://travelnews4u.blogspot.com/
