The Loop
Named for the ring of elevated train tracks that encircle it,
this is downtown Chicago’s core, and the city’s financial and
governmental hub. Abuzz with laptop-toting business folk during
the week, the Loop is transformed on weekends when a veritable
shopping frenzy erupts along its famous State Street. Those
thirsty for culture come flocking to see the collections of
the Art Institute of Chicago and to view the area’s many
architecturally significant buildings and its
notable public art, while public parks offer
green recreational spaces and the
Riverwalk pedestrian path is a great
place for strolling. The theater
district, with its variety of shows,
and the many great bars and restaurants
Lion statue, the Art
Institute of Chicago give the area a lively nightlife.
