Chicago has the lot: itinerant artists babbling Beat, Polish aunties stuffing sausage, African-American mothers organizing the block, blue-collar guys bad-mouthing the Bears, a crooner singing the blues on the SouthSide.This diverse mix has built a city with an unrivalled tradition of jazz and blues, an astonishing architecture, an appetite for hearty food, award-winning newspapers and some of the most die-hard sports fans you'll ever meet.

London - the grand resonance of its very name suggests history and might. Its opportunities for entertainment by day and night go on and on and on. It's a city that exhilarates and intimidates, stimulates and irritates in equal measure, a Monopoly board studded with stellar sights.

But somehow - between 'er Majesty and Boy George, Bow Bells and Big Ben, the Millennium Dome and the 2012 Olympics - it all hangs together.

Paris is a city to look at, with boulevards, monuments, works of art and magical lights. It's a city to taste: cheese, chocolate, wine, charcuterie (cold meats), bread.

It's also a city to smell: perfume boutiques, cafés with fresh coffee and croissants, chestnuts roasting on charcoal in winter.

Rome. Make like the locals and souse your senses in the glut of pleasures the city has to offer, from the grandiose thrill of feeling centuries of turbulent history under your feet to the small but potent intoxication of eating chestnut gelati on a hot day.
