Situated on the shoreline of Lake Michigan, Cook County in Illinois is home to nearly half of the state's residents, with the majority residing in the City of Chicago. The County itself has much to offer, particularly where cultural attractions are concerned. Home to some of the country's best museums, residents and visitors can choose from the Museum of Natural History, the Art Institute of Chicago, Shedd Aquarium, the Field Museum, the Museum of Science and Industry, and many, many more. The County also boasts one of the biggest food festivals around - the Taste of Chicago. Every summer, hundreds of vendors gather in Grant Park, offering everything from the exotic cuisine of distant locales to local Chicago favorites. The County is also known for other festivals as well, including the Grant Park Music Festival, the Chicago Humanities Festival, and the Air and Water Show along the lakefront.
For people who want to enjoy the great outdoors in a non-festival setting, the County has plenty to offer. In addition to the more famous parks, like Grant Park and Millennium Park in Chicago, the County is home to numerous smaller parks as well. You could also explore the Chicago Botanic Garden or take in the sights of the Brookfield Zoo. Of course, with sparkling Lake Michigan as the County's northeastern border, you may be content with walking or biking along the shoreline and taking in the beautiful scenery that way. Cook County truly has unlimited offerings for residents and visitors alike. No matter what your interests are, they are sure to be satisfied here.
