This is a great place to stop and stretch your legs while on a road trip! Whether it's just for a quick photo op with the Buffalo, or stopping to shop/sightseeing in the village. The buffalo is anatomically correct, so keep that in mind when aiming the camera. (Or brace yourself for many FB comments!!!)
This is a beautiful place to stop when you're touring the city. Pack a sandwich and enjoy the view.
To be honest, I stop here every time I visit Chicago. The view never gets old. I highly recommend going at off-times though, as it can get VERY busy. The glass floor area is a little unnerving, but cool.
Great view, and far less busy than the Willis Tower.
A beautiful park. Great example of how a city can reclaim green space. Be sure to allow enough time to explore the entire area.
It's smaller than I expected, but a great experience. The staff is friendly, and it's a great experience for kids. (As long as they're not afraid of dark confined spaces.)
