Lollapalooza, Spring Awakening, and Pitchfork are just three of many popular music festivals hosted in the city annually. Each festival showcases music in a variety of genres. Any and all festival lovers are bound to have an incredible weekend singing and dancing to their favorite music in the heart of the city.
Chicago’s Navy Pier is known for its child-friendly attractions, delicious dining, and massive ferris wheel. There are many activities here, but river tours are an incredible way to explore the city from the comfort of your own ship. These tours allow tourists to learn more about the layout and history of Chicago.
A friendlier environment for younger children at Navy Pier would be the Chicago Children’s Museum. Throughout my childhood, this museum was the highlight of my family trips to the city. This attraction provides fun activities for adults and children to do together, leading to a full day of family fun.
Last but not least, and only about a mile away from Navy Pier, is one of Chicago’s most cherished locations: The Skydeck. This unique observation deck gives you the chance to witness a breathtaking view of the city.
If you’re feeling brave, you can even test your nerves while standing in a glass box protruding from the 103rd floor of the Willis Tower (formerly known as the Sears Tower).
You may have already caught word of this city must-see, as it has become a very popular tourist attraction in recent years. Nevertheless, if you find yourself visiting the beautiful city of Chicago, what’s stopping you from checking out the very best view?
