Chicago is one of America’s best cities to visit. This metropolis, located on the shores of picturesque Lake Michigan, offers a ton in terms of architecture, cultural attractions, and leisure activities to all travelers who are lucky enough to make a visit.
Any tourist who visits the Windy City has a few experiences that they simply cannot pass up during their time in Chicago. Here are three must-see Chicago landmarks to add to your list.
Willis Tower
The tallest building in Chicago’s impressive skyline is the Willis Tower, which towers at 1,450 feet over the city. The third-tallest building in the United States, visitors can go up to the building’s 103rd-floor glass skyboxes, which allow you to experience a thrilling view of the city from up above.
Cloud Gate
Have you seen pictures of a big sculpture that looked like a bean while browsing through photos of the city? That’s the Cloud Gate, a reflecting massive piece of public art by Sir Anish Kapoor that serves as the crown jewel of the AT&T Plaza in the city center. It’s a great place for a picture, too!
Wrigley Field
Chicago loves its sports teams, and the Cubs and Wrigley Field serve as its most important institutions. Wrigley, the oldest park in the Major Leagues, is a quaint, charming park that serves as a place to watch baseball, enjoy a hot dog and beer, and have a typical Chicago evening.
