Chicago Travel Guide: 5,837 reviews and 11,877 photos
I have great memories of visiting Chicago, we have been there several times. I am not too fond of the airport, but the city has a lot to offer. Great museums, Shedd aquarium is a wonderful place for adults and kids!
I don't understand why they call Chicago the windy city, maybe it is if you haven't been to Alcatrez island. The wind is a lot stronger there, but Chicago's air is a lot colder.
The Institute of Art is really impressive. I have heard that it rivals the one in New York. We spent many hours at the museum just gazing at the art.
The Sears tower has an awesome view of the city-cost us a small fortune to park our vehicle though.
- Pros:Love the Museums here-they have lots
- Cons:Visit in the Summertime, unless you like it cold
- In a nutshell:Great City to see if you love musuems
