Illinois Main Street Named One of the Nation’s Most Charming
It seems like every downtown area has a "Main Street" and it's not a surprise that one in Illinois is getting national attention for being the best.
there is just something about shopping in a small town's downtown area. Hannibal and Qwuincy have amazing boutique options, restaurants, shopping, and more. One street in Illinois however is getting attention for being one of the best in the nation
Illinois' Charming Main Street
Love Exploring says Galena is that town. With over 125 shops and restaurants the Main Street in Galena has so much to do.
Galena is also filled with historical buildings and is known to have been the home of President Ulysses S. Grant. Some of the buildings that house these 125 shops are originally from the 1800s, so you can shop where people from the 1800s stood and shopped.

I have still yet to visit this small charming town in Illinois and I swear one day I will make my way there so I can go a bit of antique shopping. It also sounds like a good weekend to get away from the kids and enjoy some significant other time.
