It can be tempting to stay indoors during the fall and winter months, but with new temperatures come new adventures. Hit the Road with Best Western for some fun in the leaves and snow, and we know just the place for that: Illinois.
Here are several must-sees in Illinois to add to your itinerary:
Go into town
Chicago
A visit to Illinois isn’t complete without a visit to the windy city. Get lost in the best possible way when you explore all the things that make Chicago the city it is today. From Millennium Park, Willis Tower to the Navy Pier, there isn’t a shortage of things to do.
Geneva
Known for its specialty shops and restaurants, Geneva has a welcoming, hometown charm with deep historical roots that are well preserved in the city’s atmosphere.
Springfield
History buffs will fall in love with Springfield. The city is home to an array of local landmarks and monuments, along with ones that boast national significance as Abraham Lincoln lived in the town for some time before becoming the 16th President of the United States.
Get outside
Cypress Creek National Wildlife Refuge
Established to protect, restore and manage the wetlands and bottomland forests in the area, the Cypress Creek National Wildlife Refuge still provides a great spot for guests to enjoy the preservation through canoeing, bird watching, photography and much more.
