Chicago is the City of the Big Shoulders. What started off as a small, fur-trading settlement is today a bustling metropolis. Chicago’s colourful past remains hidden in the nooks and crannies across this wonderful, modern city.
This fully updated edition reveals compelling secrets in places that even native Chicagoans may not know. It invites locals and experienced travellers to explore the Windy City through its people, its history, and its stories.
Adventures await you, from the glamorous to the gritty. Sip cocktails atop an iconic building with sweeping city views, or paddle a kayak down the infamous Bubbly Creek of Upton Sinclair’s The Jungle. Snorkel a 32-acre, limestone sheet shoal, one of the most bio-diverse ecosystems in the Midwest. Or purchase a ten-gallon cowboy hat and take a ride a mechanical pony on your way out of the shop.
Whether you’re an out-of-towner or a diehard Chicago dweller who thinks you’ve seen it all, these 111 hidden places are waiting for you to seek out and enjoy.
