I spent a couple of years living in Illinois' capital city of Springfield, and one of the highlights of the summer was always the concerts at the Illinois State Fair. Located just off the original Route 66 (700 North Street, Springfield, IL), this restaurant is inside a refurbished World War II Quonset hut, which is an experience in itself. Something to Do in SpringfieldOne of the most visited attractions in Springfield is, of course, the Abraham Lincoln Burial Site at Oak Ridge Cemetery. Springfield is also a signature city along Route 66, with dozens of attractions to see during the 100th Anniversary of the "Mother Road."
