When considering where to head off to on a hostel break, Brits would be hard pressed to find a more interesting place to visit than the US. From the wild and untamed wilderness offered by Wyoming, to the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas and the sun and surfing of a California break, the US really does have it all. But one of the best places to visit on a US break is the city of Chicago. Otherwise known as the Windy City, Chicago is the third biggest city in the whole of the US and the largest metropolis in the state of Illinois. With such a big city to explore and so many sights to see, holidaymakers should try and keep their costs down as much as possible - and a great way to do this is to stay in a Chicago hostel, keeping any leftover accommodation cash for enjoying the city. And there is certainly a lot to see in Chicago. For the best view of the city, visitors should definitely head to the Skydeck at Willis Tower, where they can step out onto the ledge - a see-through deck which is 103 stories above the ground below. For those not quite brave enough for a103-storey height, a ride on the Ferris wheel on Navy Pier could be more suitable. This wheel is some 150 feet tall and forms the centre of the famous pier attractions. As in any big city, the selection of museums and galleries in Chicago is impressive. From the Adler Planetarium and Astronomy Museum, to the Museum of Science and Industry and the Oriental Institute, visitors will be spoiled for choice over the best place to spend a few hours. But for those who want to just sit back, relax and watch the world go by, Chicago really cannot be beaten for places to chill out. The city boasts an amazing 552 different parks and each one can offer visitors to Chicago the chance to sit down and just enjoy being away from home in a different city.
