Millennium Park, Chicago (USA)

The Millennium Park is one of the top tourist places in Chicago and listed amongst the largest parks in the city sprawling over around 319 acres of land . It is even known as the front lawn of Chicago due to its location. Visitors from all around the world come here to view the lush green property and enjoy the events that are conducted here. The world-famous Millenium Park, Chicago nestles in the center of downtown on Michigan Avenue, and is even considered as the best place to have a picnic on a sunny day.

History of Millenium Park

One of the best public parks in Chicago, the history of Millennium Park started from its construction year 1998. However, the interesting thing to note down about the attraction is that its official inauguration was held on July 16, 2004. The World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893 was the turning point for this famous park. And since then, it has been considered as the most important project of the region. The Millennium Park, Chicago is known for its lush green property, and has even received various awards for the same.

Attractions of Millenium Park

The Millennium Park, Chicago even has ice skating area, Harris theatre for music and theatre, Exelon Pavilions and even the Boeing Galleries. The park has many amazing features which would keep you engaged throughout the tour. The Millennium Park is a must visit place on Chicago tour as it is not only a perfect place for entertainment, but also one of the best places for relaxation and solitude.

Let’s take a look at some of the best attractions that one must see during their visit to Millenium Park, Chicago.

Cloud Gate

Also referred to as ‘the Bean’ because of its shape, the Cloud Gate is a public sculpture built by British artist Anish Kapoor. With numerous stainless steel plates, this gigantic attraction weighs more than 110 tons. Offering an amazing reflection of the skyline of the city of Chicago, this attraction leaves everyone in awe.

Crown Fountain

Inspired by historic fountains  having gargoyles displaying the water spouting out of one’s mouth, Spanish artist Jaume Plensa constructed this unique attraction to pay tribute to the people of Chicago. Made up of two glass block towers of 50 feet, this attraction also displays around 1000 rotating video images of the residents. This attraction is a must-visit for kids.

Lurie Garden

Sprawling over 2.5 acres of land, Lurie Garden is one of the best places to visit on Chicago tour if one is seeking tranquility. Its 15 foot high hedge enclosing it on both sides symbolizes Chicago as the ‘City of big shoulders’. With a hardwood footbridge running over shallow water along the east side, here people often sit on the edge, and enjoy some time during the summer season.

Maggie Daley Park

Being one of the best public parks for kids, Maggie Daley Park is sandwiched between the lake shore and Millenium Park. Sprawled over 20 acres of land, this family-friendly park has a huge playground, a rock climbing wall, a skating ribbon, a mirror maze, a mega slide, and an ‘Enchanted Forest’.

Jay Pritzker Pavilion

Designed by Frank Gehry in memory of Jay Pritzker - a renowned philanthropist, this pavilion is made of brushed stainless steel. The pavilion has a seating area of 11000 people, and thus, numerous free music events are organized here from spring to fall. The high-end sound system of the pavilion can be seen covered wit criss-cross stainless steel pipes.  

Things to Do at Millenium Park

Visit the Crown Fountain, and cherish the splash of water. A perfect attraction to visit from the month of May to October, here, locals of Chicago can be seen showering paddlers and spouting water from their pouts.

Do visit ‘the Bean’ or the famous sculpture of Cloud Gate, and stroll under the gigantic structure to witness the distorted reflections that are worth snapping.

The sculpture of Cloud Gate also lets one enjoy the clear reflection of skyline of the city of Chicago.

Do visit the beguiling Lurie Garden, and escape into the fiction world while experiencing the utmost tranquility.

    Mumbai

    Murli's 14 days trip to Chicago

    Myself and my wife booked our US trip for 2 weeks through TMS Holidays overseen by Travel Triangle for travel in the first week of Feb 2020. Straight Away I would give them a thumbs Up for a thoroughly enjoyable and fully satisfied trip which included several states including our start from St Fra
    ncisco , Los Angeles , Las Vegas , New York , Washington and Miami. The chief person in this entire trip RASHID is a perfect professional and a lovely person. I was circumspect about trusting such a big tour and the money being invested and god forbid get a bad deal in hotels or so but I must say that every service and co-ordination be it hotel or transfers or sight seeings etc were all precise and absolutely as agreed and understood between us. He is a very knowledgeable person and one who keeps his word and continuously follows up before the tour for any required changes and feeding of documents / tickets / vouchers etc as also whilst on tour as to our timing , any issues or dissatisfaction or any matter if at all. This is professionalism as usually tour operators take the money and look for their next potential customer without ensuring whether the clients are getting it all what they have been committed too. I have myself t ravelled a lot in the past 3 decades so I know where the tour operators can let you down and swallow a good chunk for their profits but with Rashid and TMS Holidays I am completely satisfied and the 9 out of 10 is because there is always room for improvement and few small things can be ironed out but they are not at any negative for me. I will surely consider TMS Holidays and Rashid for my future tours whenever and It is my honest statement that TMS Holdays with Rashid in it is GENUINE AND RELIABLE TOUR OPERATOR and wish he keeps and maintains the same good attitude and commitment. This is all possible when customers/ clients also make their requirement clear and confirm to the tour programme without any misunderstanding like I felt I had this understanding with them. I would also commend Babloo of the transfer section from Avis India who was excellent his co-ordination and regular follow ups and timely intimation of pick ups and drop offs even though it was very odd timing with the time difference in India and US., Good Luck and wish you the very best of success and Life always.

    I had to cancel my east coast and west coast travel due to personal emergency. What disappointed me was that the agency did not offer to refund any money incurred for west and east coast travels (the unused portion of my trip) . In fact, for the rerouting I was asked to pay INR 14500. I had already
    paid a total of INR 6.8L for the whole trip but ended up using only a portion of the trip. I felt that the agency could have been fair and refunded a portion of the money paid for the unused trip.

    Bharti's 7 days trip to Chicago

    The trip should have been managed better. There were constant hiccups. Despite mentioning that the cost should be inclusive of everything, we paid extra tax at the hotel. This was later refunded after explanation. Trip to Niagara Falls, required a Canadian Visa which wasn't mentioned. Money was ch
    arged but we missed the attraction "Made of Mist" because we were never told that candadian visa is required. No one got back on the ride that happens from American side. Despite paying the money for New York city tour attractions, we were separately charged for it. This was later refunded. Missed the island tour of Statue of Liberty, because we were told our tour will cover the same, but that dint happen. Other attractions like central park, Brooklyn bridge and Rockefeller Center got missed, cause we were told the tour will cover it. But did not happen, and no time was left for us to visit on our own. Also the travel agency commission should be kept transparent. The customer should know how much is just the tour cost and how much is commission.

    Hi My trip to USA was great, even though its a tailor made package it was leisurely planned and well organised. I cannot miss out to say the complete coordination of Mr. Piyush who has been throughout live 24/7 in case of any emergency and the hotel locations was just awesome and just the right l
    ocality. only disappointment was every hotel charges a recreation fee or resort fee which was not mentioned earlier in terms of value. it varies from 30usd to 50usd for 3 nights appx depends upon the class and location. needless to mention all events or tours organised with overseas suppliers need to be reconfirmed with the supplier 24 hrs in advance, this was not insisted which made us to have some communication issues. if this would have been cared by Travel triangle its of great support. Overall we had a great holiday with travel triangle...and a big thank to Mr.Piyush for the complete coordination. Would highly recommend travel triangle for any overseas trip.
