Birthplace of the skyscraper, Chicago is famous for its architectural wonders. But the city’s motto is “urbs in horto,” or city in a garden, and its connection to nature is readily apparent, from the vast Lake Michigan shoreline to the Chicago River. Its public living room is the art-filled Millennium Park, and its playground is Navy Pier, jutting into the lake with carnival-like attractions. And when the sun sets, more than 200 theatres and jazz and blues clubs burst into life.
