69. Attend A Chicago Blues House

Nothing soothes the soul quite like the classic blues. Immerse yourself in the calming sounds and escape the hustle of a fast paced and busy life for a moment. Chicago is home to some of the coziest venues featuring a diverse mix of performers who will keep you entertained all night long. Grab some drinks with a group of friends and a bite to eat while the stage lights up with life.

Many lounges even have prayer rooms where you’ll find Hindu and Buddhist items, funky decor, and amazing artwork. Just make sure you find a seat early, because even though it may be a laid back atmosphere, finding a seat at times can be quite chaotic.

70. Play at the Boryeong Mud Festival

Get down and dirty with over two million people from around the world at the Boryeong Mud Festival. This good, clean fun all started back in 1998 and has been growing in popularity ever since its inception. The original idea behind it resolves around the cosmetic business which sold products containing mud sourced at the nearby local flats.

The mud itself is known to be rich in minerals, germaniums and bentonities, all of which are believed to be good for the skin. However, there have been some controversies about children getting rashes in 2007. As a result it led to officials to better inspect for any contamination, in addition to ensuring cleaner water sources are available. And as of seven years later with no reported problems, I’d like to believe it’s a thing of the past.

Presently, the festival features mud pools, slides, prisons, and skiing competitions. Some people even add coloring dye to the mud for body painting purposes. There’s also a massive center stage with live music and a spectacular fireworks show to finish off the festival.
