The millenium park was the place we visited. It is really amazing, especially on a clear day. Lots of stuff to do around, and get some good pictures! more

Relatively a small park, however is visually stunning. Great way to see the city's skyline when juxtaposed with nature. Also the infamous Crown fountain and the Cloud Gate structure are the highlights of the park and should not be missed on a trip to Chicago. more

I love parks. They are the best of public spaces because they combine so many elements that attract so different types of: Sculptures, monuments, fountains, performance venues, gardens, sports areas, playgrounds attract art lovers, history buffs, music fans, gardeners, jocks, kids and others. Millennium Park takes all the conventional features of popular parks and moves them into the 21st century.... more

Great park, lots of art, fun and play. The bean is a wonderful sculpture, best seen before sunrise, when the light is wonderful soft and gloomy.... and no people around either! more

A nice park to visit while in Chicago. Lots of places to take pictures. This park was bigger than I thought it would be. I think if you come to Chicago in the warm months this is a must see. more

We were wandering around without a plan and ran into Millennium Park. How cool! A concert was going on in the band shell- a string orchestra- totally neat to see, some arts and crafts were being done in the family area (we really didn't have enough time to check that out but it looked neat), and seriously- the water area... more

Chicago has done an amazing job with this park. Beautiful plantings, awesome architectural ampitheatre that seems to have music going every time we are there, fountains to actually cool off in... Definitely go both during the day and at night. The view of the city behind the faces fountain is incredible. more
