Muslim Traveller Guide
Chicago has one of the largest and most established Muslim communities in the United States, so halal food is easy to find — from Devon Avenue to the southwest suburbs — and there are many mosques plus prayer/meditation rooms at both airports. The CTA "L" trains and buses, on a single Ventra card, make getting around the city straightforward.
