T The third most populated city in the United States,

Chicago is famous for its architecture, art and — do

we even have to say it (deep dish pizza – scroll down

for more on that). A few things you might not know: it’s home

to the world’s most complete Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton (The

Field Museum. It’s named Sue.), their rapid-transit rail system

is not the subway but the “L,” and it’s where Route 66 begins

— or ends, depending on what direction you’re coming from.

Art Institute of ChicagoWith over 300,000 works of art, the institute’s Director, James Rondeau, says that they have stayed true to the

founding mission from 1879: “to collect, preserve, and interpret works of art of the highest quality from across

the globe for the inspiration and education of our visitors.” It’s one of the most visited museums in the world and

is famous for being featured in the 1986 movie, “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.” artic.edu

Millennium ParkOnce an industrial wasteland, the idea to transform the land into a city park sprang up in the late 90s. The

result is a 24.5-acre urban oasis with world-class architecture, landscape design and art pieces. When you’re in

the neighborhood, check the park’s website for a list of free events, including concerts, exhibitions and tours.
