Nightlife 
Ask people about things that they associate with Chicago and they may just say gangsters and prohibition-era speakeasies. Countless films have have depicted this all to the soundtrack of improv jazz. The nightlife that was famous in the 20's continues to be something of a destination today with the city filled with venues that offer everything from cosy Irish Bars to cavernous sports bars, many of which are to be found near to the city’s iconic Wrigley Field baseball stadium. For those who want something altogether smarter then the River North and Magnificent Mile might be just what the doctor ordered. Why not have a drink on top of the world at the John Hancock Building’s Signature Lounge. This bar is the venue for many who are about to pop the question and offers amazing panoramic views of the city from its 96th floor vantage point. As well as jazz, Chicago is renowned as being the home of Chicago blues and no trip to the city would be complete without sampling live the music made famous by such iconic names as Muddy Waters, Bo Diddley and Howlin’ Wolf.
