To fall in love with Chicago, you only need a minute in front of Cloud Gate. In the reflection of the sculpture, amidst Millennium Park, all facets of the City of Winds are revealed. In contorted movements, the buildings dance with each step towards the sculpture by artist Anish Kapoor. There, under that big silver bean (as the locals call it), there is no one who can resist the beauty of Chicago. The step is only the first for those arriving in the metropolis bathed by the grandiose Lake Michigan. We do, however, warn you: the tour is so amazing that you may repeat it many times throughout your trip or even throughout your life!

In Chicago – or Chi-Town, as the locals call it – life moves at a slow pace. Despite being the third most populous city in the United States – with 2.7 million inhabitants – Wind City manages to maintain the balance between the rush of a large urban center and the calm of an environment full of parks on the edge of a magnificent – and great — lake. Located in the state of Illinois, in the Midwest of the United States, Chicago quickly surprises and conquers visitors who arrive there.

The city has the gift of transforming, in a short time, the traveler into a local. It's one of those places where you like to participate in daily life and not just fulfill tourist goals. In fact, in Chicago the tourist spots are frequented by everyone. It's easy to be enchanted by the ingenuity of the “L”, where residents walk the surface subway tracks going around the Loop, while in the car window the landscape is made up of dozens of innovative buildings. At the same time, close to the popular The Bean, beach chairs serve as an outdoor armchair for those who want to watch a classic movie on the big screen at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion. Tourists follow, in total harmony, among the locals on all sides.

Anyone who sees Chicago as organized, safe (remembering that it was once dominated by gangsters such as Al Capone) and inviting (at least when it's not winter) can't imagine how many problems the city has faced. The biggest one, and responsible for the local urban transformation, was the great fire of 1871. Almost nothing was left standing. The desire to rebuild it was the impetus for technological innovations – such as the first skyscraper in history – that left a unique architecture heritage, to the point of becoming a reference for professionals around the world.

Today, Chicago struggles to become even more pleasant for locals and visitors alike. There are major investments in revitalization and depollution works on the Chicago River, as well as permanent projects for better use of green areas, which are extremely valued in the city. The fact is that Chicago, unlike many big cities, gets better every day.

If you are looking for a new destination to visit in the United States, strongly consider going to Wind City. You will find excellent shopping options, restaurants for all tastes, varied museums and experience the city like few others allow.

Choosing a location to stay in Chicago is easy. It is difficult to find a hotel with a good price. Unfortunately, rates in the city are not the cheapest. Therefore, it is necessary to research a lot and plan well in advance. This way you avoid surprises with exorbitant prices and even crowded hotels.

Although Chicago is a big city, the area where the main attractions are concentrated is quite small. With a little bit of willingness, you will be able to cover almost everything on foot. Except when it's very cold, which is unfortunately common there.

A good way to locate yourself to look for accommodation is from the Loop. The region - named for the loop that subway lines make around several blocks - is one of the best located in the city. It is at the center of attractions such as Millennium Park, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Chicago Architecture Foundation, the Chicago Theatre, the Chicago River and just steps from Lake Michigan. The ease of transport in the region also counts for many points. The Loop is where all the subway lines meet. That is, you will be a few meters from all of them, without exception.

North of the Loop, on the other side of the Chicago River, another area concentrates many hotel options. The Magnificent Mile, the shopping area along Michigan Avenue, is the starting point for tours such as Navy Pier, the Skydeck and 360° viewpoints, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the shops on Oak Street, in addition to the great dining options along the Riverwalk. It is lively, busy and very well located.

Each trip to Chicago is better than the last. Each discovery impresses and proves how amazing this place is. You can travel there as a child, teenager, adult or elderly, which will all be different and surprising trips. Chicago is democratic, appeals to all tastes and involves tourists.

Get ready for an amazing trip. Go to Chicago and always be surprised.

Have fun!
