IChicago inezidlaliso eziningana futhi ngamunye wabo uzokwazi ukunikeza incazelo. Ngabe ibizwa ngokuthi "idolobha laseSkyscrapers"? Akumangazi!
Idolobha lapha futhi kukhona nje ama-skyscrapers ashubile, wokuphakama okuhlukile, ukwakheka nokuklama. Kunomuzwa wokuthi ungena emhlabeni wesikhathi esizayo, lapho amaphuzu avelele wanamuhla ancintisana khona, ongowokuqala ukufika esibhakabhakeni. Isitayela sezakhiwo - ubuchwepheshe obuphezulu, banamuhla, shayela njengoba ufuna, kodwa ezweni lethu ngeke kube khona inqwaba yama-skyscrapers anamuhla, impela.
Esithombeni, ngendlela, umthombo we-buckingham uboniswe epaki enkulu. Unomzalwane otholakala eMillenium Park. Uma umthombo wokuqala wenziwa ngaphansi kwendandatho (unokufana okuningi nomunye wemithombo yama-verailles), osesibili isakhiwo se-hilewing.

Kwenye indawo ngezinga lomlomo kukhona ipayipi, ukusuka lapho kukhona ingcindezi yamanzi ngezikhathi ezithile.
Le yindawo oyithandayo yokufa, okuza lapha ukujabulisa, uthele emanzini, ngegama elilodwa - ukuthatha umphefumulo.
Isikhungo seMillenium Park sihlobisa "ubhontshisi" osayizi abakhulu. Lokhu kungashiwo, ukugqama kwedolobha, ukugcizelela ubuhle bayo, isitayela esikhethekile nobuhle obuhlukile.

Akukona nje kuphela ukuthi angambheki avela kuzo zonke izifundazwe kuphela, kodwa njengoba nje thina, izivakashi ezivela kude, ezafika zizothatha izithombe lapha.
Isidlaliso sesibili, "idolobha lemimoya", iChicago yathola umoya onamandla kakhulu ovunguza kulezi zindawo. Maphakathi nendawo yedolobha, ngaphansi kokuvikelwa kwesiketi esiseduze, umoya awuzwakali, kodwa kufanelekile ukuya ogwini lweLake Michigan, njengoba ushaya ngokoqobo kude nokugcwala komoya. Sicasukile impela, ngakho-ke sachitha iningi lesikhathi edolobheni.
