LALITPUR, Oct. 23, 2019 (Xinhua) -- Photo taken on Oct. 23, 2019 shows pigeons flying as people visit Patan Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Lalitpur, Nepal.

Chicago, with its glittering riverfront, soaring towers, iconic bridges, and thriving art and culture scene, never ceases to amaze. Each visit reveals something new, yet also deepens a familiar affection — a city that grows on me every time I return.


Stylish, contemporary and luxurious with sprawling rooms and suites while being located not too far from downtown DC or the US capital's key attractions,  Hotel AKA Washington Circle in the vibrant Foggy Bottom/West End neighborhood is a revelation to me.
