🇺🇸 In Chicago｜2-Day Citywalk Itinerary + Guide 🚶‍♀️✨

Spent a weekend exploring Chicago on foot and was truly impressed! The city gives off a vibe that’s energetic, clean, and full of character ✨. Compared to New York, it’s way cleaner and less crowded. One great thing about Chicago is that most attractions are concentrated downtown, making it super walkable. Two days is perfect for a short trip! 🏙️ 📍 Safety note: Yes, Chicago has its rough areas (especially south of downtown), but the core downtown and tourist zones are generally safe. Just stay aware and avoid less familiar neighborhoods! 🌟 Day 1 Arrived + hotel check-in Lunch: Lou Malnati‘s Pizzeria 🍕 (must-try deep-dish pizza!)
