We were visiting Urbana and were told about this wonderful park. It was a beautiful day for a walk and this was the perfect place to see and experience its beauty. It was during the week and it was not too busy. We were able to relax and enjoy the unusual park artwork and sculptures. There is a paved walking path around the park. Children were playing in the playground. The park is lovely and peaceful.

There are 7 stages in the center, if you count the one in the lobby, the one in the basement, and the amphitheater outside. The best is the Foellinger Great Hall, which has fabulous acoustics that keep attracting some of the best symphonies to come and perform. Each year, I buy about 10 sets of tickets for performances at the center, and have seen many of the top 20 symphonies perform here.

It used to be possible for people visit the belfry on Fridays between 12:30 and 1 pm. No longer. Still worth a visit, for the sounds and for the math/statistics library, which has a beautiful interior.

Very nice library. I have been coming here since I was a kid many years ago. It has been expanded and upgraded so it's different but meets the needs of our changing world. It is quite pretty, includes a coffee shop and has an extensive children's section. It has connections with many other libraries so you can always get a title that you are searching for. Lastly, they have a very nice website that can tell you what materials they have and can get.

Champaign-Urbana Adventures in Time and Space is an interactive real-life escape room game for friends, family, and coworkers! Teams of 2-10 players have 60 minutes to find clues, complete puzzles, discover secret doors, and solve a greater mystery. Each game takes place in a different themed setting and time period. From dispelling evil spirits in a haunted cabin to foiling the plot of a medieval wizard, each scenario is designed to make players feel like they are living out a movie! Players must use observation, communication, and critical thinking to win. It makes for a great night out or an exciting twist on corporate team building.
This is going to be hard to beat! Our group did the "Wizard" and "Cabin" rooms and they were both incredible. The puzzles were challenging yet attainable, the rooms were completely immersive, and the attention to detail was at another level. I've done a handful of escape rooms and none of them came close to this experience. The location has easy parking, and is near a lot of places to eat. Our group opted to do two rooms and had a break in between, so we went across the street for some food. Easy to get to with lots around! Hope we can go back soon!

Wonderful exhibits featuring a great variety of time periods and places around the world. The tour of the South American materials was especially rewarding. Well labeled, which is important for the visitor. Enjoyed this very much.

I got opportunity to visit this place in September & December 2019. I do not have words to describe the richness and the importance of this university.This was such an extraordinary feeling to watch this place during the day and after sunset in lights. So much of talent in the air all around. The QUAD stands tall so fabulous !! I salute this center of knowledge and accomplishment !! Honored to stand in the center lawn and watch the QUAD all around.
