Millenium Park.
Our Chicago experience started at Millennium Park, the northernmost portion of the larger Grant Park complex. This area is also the most elaborately designed, featuring a maze of walking trails, a skating loop, carefully curated gardens, modern pavilions, and eye-catching public art displays such as the Crown Fountain (above).
Harry was delighted to uncover a bouncy ball that his aunty had secretly stashed in the park for him a week or two earlier.
The park is home to the Millennium Monument.
The Jay Pritzker Pavilion (above) is a renouned outdoor concert venue.
Sadly, we couldn't fully enjoy the iconic Cloud Gate, as it is currently a construction site.
Grant Park is a vast green space set between Chicago's towering skyline and the shores of Lake Michigan.
Grant Park extends southward from Millennium Park and incorporates major landmarks such as the Shedd Aquarium, the Planetarium, and the Field Museum at the southern boundary.
The park offers a diverse mix of well-kept gardens and recreational spaces, with the spectacular 45-metre-high Clarence Buckingham Memorial Fountain at its center.
