Snap a photo of your reflection in the silver Cloud Gate sculpture at Millennium Park before heading to Grant Park to get hit with the refreshing spray of Buckingham Fountain. There are dozens of museums and theater companies in Chicago, so a cultural experience is never hard to find.

Polk Bros Park

Reviewed By O6378WFannag - Park Ridge, United States

I live in Chicago for more than 20 years but I don't visit Navy Pier too often. I was impressed on my recent visit to learn about new park with a lovely outdoor venue/amphitheater. Nicely kept. I like landscaping with prairie and native plants. Nice picnic area and some hidden picnic tables. Now I need to figure out if there are any concerts performed at that amphitheater with a gorgeous background: Lake Michigan.

Navy Pier is a must when visiting Chicago! It offers a ton of lovely shops, places to eat, a beautiful tropical house to explore with fun water features, merrigo round, ferris wheel, and a lovely Pier that showcases beautiful foliage, sights and sounds of the harbour. Here you can rent bikes to explore, catch a trolly bus or a HOP ON-HOP OFF excursion bus. A fountain outiside the main entrance offers a place for the kids to have some fun and cool down during the hot days. During the summer, they have fireworks at 9:30 pm with is a spectacular display. Afterward, you can enjoy some Chicago must have famous Giordano's deep dish pizza but make sure you make reservations. Lots to do and see!

Chicago Pedway

Reviewed By kathycV6399HQ

We took the Chicago Architectural Loop and Pedway tour with Alex was our guide. This was a two hour tour that starts in the Marquette Building where you go into the lobby and see the beautiful moasic tiles. From there we visited the Chicago Temple; Picasso's Stature in the Daly Plaza, went into Macy's on State Street to discuss the architecture when it was built as Marshall Field's with the Tiffany and Company designed mosaic ceiling tiles; walked along sections of the Chicago Pedway and ended at the Chicago Cultural Center. I highly recommend taking this tour. The temperature when we visited was 19 degrees and it was nice to do a majority of the tour inside.

Centennial Wheel

Reviewed By Sonny_circumvehor - Toledo, United States

Not allowed to complain about the price, if you agreed to the price. Yes expensive, but it is what it is. Maybe because it wasn't super busy but we did get a pod to ourselves . Side note, go thru the arboretum, then a few short steps to the ticket booth / ride.. It looked as though there is a merry go round in the summer as well. I think, open till 11?
