Chicago, Illinois -Great City on a Great Lake

Chicago, the 3rd largest city in the United States

Chicago, now the third-largest city in the United States, was once destroyed by a fire of uncertain origin. It hosts an annual St. Patrick’s Day parade and offers tourists multiple attractions and experiences.
