Illinois Capitol Building, October, 2010, Kathy Weiser.

Welcome to Legends of the Land
of Lincoln!
From the major metropolitan city of Chicago, where you can find all manner
of museums, night-life, arts, entertainment and sophistication; to the
small farming communities along old
Route 66,
you will enjoy your visit through Illinois!
Visit its many state parks along the way, where the trees are lush and
streams flow freely. See the
Illinois
State Capitol in
Springfield
and visit Abraham Lincoln's home and tomb. And, if you have a
hankering to see the see the many vintage icons along Old
Route 66,
where the "Road to the West" began, you will find them abundantly.
Enjoy your travels in
Illinois
and welcome to The Land of Lincoln

 The
Illinois
flag is a simple representation of the Great Seal of Illinois
against a white background. In 1969, the General Assembly voted to add the
word "ILLINOIS" under the Great Seal of the flag. The State's name was
added to the flag to ensure that people not familiar with the Great Seal
of Illinois
would still recognize the banner.
