In late September of this year, we stayed in Chicago a week prior to tour the poor to find a lot of useful information online, and now a few of my own feelings to write to share with everyone and hope for the future of tourism XDJM to Chi City, who have it helps.
1. To live
Chi City on the map to see there is a downtown youth hostel, location is very good, very close distance of several major attractions, but is best booked in advance, are said to be in demand. If you do not live youth hostel, do not live in the urban areas where hotels are very expensive. A better option is to live along the subway, the Chicago metro network is well developed, and the interchange between the various lines is also very convenient, basically take the subway pulls a bus you can reach most of the tourist spot. The first two nights we have live in MIDWAY hotel near the airport area, away from the Orange Line (Chicago's subway are to color naming, a total of 10) very close to the terminus, there are free SHUTTLE BUS to the subway station. The hotel area there are nearly 10 hotels, but prices are not cheap (we live in HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS, per night $ 120), mostly on business customers, business blasting is good, so is not recommended. After a few nights to live in the Chicago southwest L'GRANGE (spelling may be wrong) is a HOLIDAY INN, can easily take the METRO train arrived in the city center, conditions are better, breakfast is more abundant, prices are also much cheaper ($ 80 per night) However, transport costs increases. Recommended live in O'HARE airport hotel zone, a subway line in another terminal in the vicinity, but also SHUTTLE BUS, the price cheaper than the MIDWAY hotel zone, generally $ 80 or so, traffic is also very convenient. Other areas are not very familiar.
2. OK
As already said, the Chicago subway and bus lines and ride a lot of convenience, there is no car without any problems. Recommendation, to buy VISITOR PASS, you can, within the prescribed number of days unlimited subway and bus ride. Points 1 day, 2 days, 3 days, 5 days, 7 days 5 species, of which 1 day 5 yuan, 3 days, 12 yuan, 18 yuan for five days, 7 days, 20 yuan (forgot the price of 2 days) . However, this VISITOR PASS not every subway station has to sell, the best advance online check. Orange Line terminus MIDWAY just some selling, but not 5 days of this, and I had to spend 2 yuan buy 7 days. To prepare small change or a credit card, if overpaid, automatic ticket machines do not give change to. Almost every provision of the MTR subway stations, bus route map, very convenient. With this map and I PASS, traveled to Chicago with his son. Even if a car is not recommended, one central speed unhappy, and second, parking fees are not cheap.
3, eat
Fast-food category is not said, and no different from other cities, to talk about in the bar. Praised the old-line, Sichuan indeed good, taste good, is worth a go, but found several drawbacks: 1. Business is good, I often have to wait bit, we went to the day has been 20 o'clock, and also to wait nearly a quarter of an hour before there are seats; 2. the price too high; 3.WAITOR attitude in general, but also because business is good, a little struggling to cope with. But the taste is really good to say, in particular, recommended that a small sugar pea garlic. Also recommend an, Sichuan, not far from the old, called JOY'S NOODLE, called NOODLE, in fact everything. This tastes better than the old Sichuan less, but the dish is very rich, including Guangdong, South Korea, Southeast Asia, flavor, prices cheaper, business equally well and are usually packed full with foreigners more than giant. 10 U.S. dollars (including tax) can eat a tasty, weight, or Vietnamese rice noodles and donburi foot or noodles, if many people on the a la carte. Do not point it at home, but the curry dishes, it makes it hard to swallow. Oyster sauce beef, well, fruit smoothies are also good, there are a lot of people take-away and led away. We basically have dinner at this address, so other stores is not clear.
4. You
With regard to attractions, the poor have a lot of Internet User recommended, I would like to talk about their feelings: It is recommended the first day at the Cultural Center Michigan Avenue to go there on a variety of Chicago, travel guides and maps, very comprehensive, you can see a guide to decide where to go.
With children, then recommend
1. Navy Pier. Where the Children's Museum is great, kids will definitely like it; also can take boat rides on Lake Michigan; stained glass museum also quite distinctive, and very beautiful. There is the old water tower near the bus directly to Navy Pier;
2.MUSEUM CAMPUS, three well-known museums are in the region, the distance between the three far, there are buses may take advantage of. However, this hall are three large, if the time is not sufficient will not take into account, otherwise the child will be tired, what specifically would be interested to see their children. My family's favorite kids planetarium, followed by the aquarium, and finally the natural history museum (and apparently little interest in his historical heritage). When sunny side of the lawn from the planetarium Looking back DOWNTOWN, there is a stirring of the United States, but to a cloudy day, the sky and the lake are gray, completely without feeling. So choose a good day is very important.
If you rent a bike tour around Lake Michigan lap, just feels great pity that I took my son inconvenient.
3. Industrial Science Museum. The Museum of larger, richer, not to be missed. The House on Hyde Park, next to the University of Chicago is also not far away, are interested, you can go and see.
4. To ascend JOHN HANCOCK building overlooking the reason is not recommended SEARS, First, prices of the latter than the former expensive, and second, the former is closer to Lake Michigan, the landscape better; 3 is that the former has a ventilated corridor, you can let you feel to the height of strong winds. Many tourist guides and free maps where both of these two buildings COUPON, each can save 1 dollar. Remember we must pick a sunny day to go, in the above sense is great, and the feeling of the ground point of view is entirely different. If possible, to HOHN HANCOCK 96 floor restaurant to go for dinner, you can overview the city's night scene, this time we did not go to be regarded as a relatively big regret.
The other regret is not a good look at the art museum, my son is clearly lacking in artistic family cells, which in no way interested in only spent a few minutes took me to pull out.
As for the Lincoln Park is not recommended to go, there is nothing characteristic.
Chicago's best season was 6-9 months, unless a last resort when the cold weather is not recommended to go. Windy City's call it really was not covered, and not when the sun, then wind and the body is really uncomfortable.
If you want to visit these museums, the proposed nine mid-to late to go, why the one hand, when the weather in Chicago Fortunately, it is important from mid-September, mentioned above, several museums have a free open day .
The specific time is as follows: Monday, Tuesday, MUSEUM CAMPUS of the three gallery and Industrial Science Museum free of charge; Thursday evening 4 to 7 points, children's museum free of charge; Thursday 5pm to 8 pm Art Museum free of charge. But free is GENERAL ADMISSION, a special area in general still have to pay, but free access to these GENERAL ADMISSION, it can also save a lot of silver. So, if you like visiting the museum and recommended itinerary: Sunday night stay there, MUSEUM CAMPUS Monday Tuesday tour of the three gallery and industrial science museums, tour Wednesday SERRS Building, Grant Park, Millennium Park, and cultural centers; a wonderful Thursday miles, Navy Pier, Children's Museum, Art Museum. In this way, Chicago Aspect essentially a network into a. Of course, if you do not like to see the museum or the time is running out, you can be arranged.
This trip took a lot of photos, but to an online photo and travels on the Chicago has been a lot, and secondly, it is not flattered by their own standards, so it does not show oneself, and write down some of the more practical experience, wish to latecomers help. If you have anything to ask, I will try to
