You’ll find magic in such sparkling Chicago
attractions as Navy
Pier – the Midwest’s top tourist destination
– and its boardwalk, 150-foot Ferris wheel, boat and segway tours, and
countless dining or shopping options. Millennium
Park offers dazzling music, art, landscape design and architecture
– including the mammoth stainless-steel Cloud Gate sculpture – plus ice
skating in the winter, splashing around in the interactive Crown Fountain during
summer, and alfresco dining from spring to fall.
Chicago looks great from every angle,
whether you’re exploring the city’s astonishing architecture during a guided
tour (on foot or aboard a Chicago River boat, lakeshore cruise or sightseeing
bus) or you’re enjoying the birds-eye view from the 103rd floor Sears
Tower Skydeck and the 94th floor Hancock
Observatory. The city’s 29 miles of lakefront paths are just one
reason Chicago is one of the world’s most walkable and beautiful cities.
Chicago
is often called a friendly city – and you’ll agree when you accept the
city’s warm invitation to sample such free attractions as Lincoln
Park Zoo, home to more than 1,000 mammals, reptiles, and birds.
Enjoy the peaceful gardens under glass at Garfield
Park Conservatory and Lincoln
Park Conservatory, or take in one of the free performances at Navy
Pier. To make sure you don’t miss out on anything the city has to offer,
make your very first stop the Chicago
Cultural Center - Chicago's Architectural Showplace for the Lively
and Visual Arts and the city's official Visitor Center.
