The first thing we recommend doing is exploring the city center. You should start your walking tour of Chicago at the two famous skyscrapers, Willis and Hancock, by climbing to the viewing platform of either of them. Then there's the water tower, Michigan Avenue, State Street, the Mercantile Exchange, the Miro and Picasso sculptures, and many other sights.
Take a look at the Chicago travel itinerary that passes through Millennium Park. We recommend starting your walk from the modernist Pritzker Pavilion and the Mirror Bean sculpture. Then you can head to either the Natural History Museum (admission is 15 USD for children and 22 USD for adults), the Shedd Aquarium (admission starts at 8 USD), or the Adler Planetarium (admission is 12 USD for children and 22 USD for adults). Adler Planetarium (admission is $12 USD). If you go to Millennium Park in the evening, linger for a couple minutes near the Buckingham Fountain. An unforgettable light show awaits you.
One of Chicago's most popular walking routes is War Pier. Here you can ride rides, water slides, see art exhibits or aerial shows, and shop for souvenirs.
Tickets for rides cost 5-6 USD, boat rides cost 24 USD. It is not recommended to take a guide with you. His services will cost about 100 USD. If you buy a map of the area, you'll be able to navigate on your own.
An interesting walking route around Chicago will turn out and in the neighborhood Ukrainian Village, which natives of Ukraine began to settle in the late XIX century. There are a lot of colorful buildings, beautiful churches and restaurants with Ukrainian cuisine.
