Welcome to Chicago

Take cloud-scraping architecture, lakefront beaches and world-class museums, stir in wild comedy, fret-bending guitars and very hefty pizza, and you've got a town that won't let you down. The city center is a steely wonder, but it's Chicago's mural-splashed neighborhoods with their inventive storefront restaurants, fringe theaters and sociable dive bars that really blow you away.

Masterpieces from around the globe hang in the vast marble halls, including a whopping collection of impressionist and post-impressionist paintings. Grant Wood's American Gothic and Edward Hopper's Nighthawks are other highlights.

Millennium Park

It's the playful heart of the city, shining with whimsical public art. Go ahead, touch the silvery smoothness of 'the Bean' and get splashed by Crown Fountain's human gargoyles.

Willis Tower

The 103rd-floor observatory in Chicago's loftiest skyscraper puts you way up in the clouds. The glass-floored ledges hanging out in midair are every bit as scary as you imagine.

Wrigley Field

A tangible sense of history comes alive at the 1914 ballpark, thanks to the hand-turned scoreboard, iconic neon entrance sign, legendary curses and time-honored traditions that infuse games played here.

Field Museum of Natural History

The collection is mammoth and all encompassing, ranging from the world's largest Tyrannosaurus rex and the world's largest (stuffed) man-eating lion to a slew of mummies, gemstones and totem poles.

The observatory unfurls a heck of a view, 94 stories up in the sky, right by the lake. If that's not enough, stand at the window that tilts you out over the ground.

Lincoln Park

Chicago's largest park is where locals come out to play. They jog the leafy pathways, swim at the beach, watch the zoo animals or just snooze under a shady tree.

Navy Pier

Stretching away from the skyline and into the blue of Lake Michigan, half-mile-long Navy Pier is Chicagos most-visited attraction. Its charms revolve around the cool breezes, sweet views and crackling fireworks shows.

Museum of Contemporary Art

You never know what will be showing from the collection, but it'll probably be unorthodox and boundary-smashing. Minimalist, surrealist and conceptual photography works are the strong suits.
