This park is so beautiful and innovative on so many levels. Your kids can play of a splash ground with two tall screens that douse you with water. Really fun! It's a great place to take a walk or see a concert, too. You walk through many sculptures like the bean, and you can walk to grant park, next to... more

I live in the city and work downtown and am very lucky to be able to walk over to the park on my lunch hour. It's a modern green space in the middle of a bustling sometimes overwhelming downtown area that offers something all year round. In the winter I go to ice skate ( for free) and will continue... more

Plan to spend a few hours at this beautiful park. The flowers are always abundant. The Bean and the water/wall are a lot of fun. It's a nice park to bring a lunch, sit and people watch, or you could sit at the restaurant within and visit the shops after you've eaten. While there, don't forget to cross the main... more

Wonderful during the day, and at night. There are always locals and tourists around relaxing or taking photos of the centre pieces of the park - "the bean" (cloud gate) and the urban waterfalls... We visited in the Spring and the park was blooming while children played in the waters and my boyfriend and I tried to get as many... more

During the warmer part of the year is when the park really shines. While everyone remembers "The Bean" I really enjoy the video... more

Maybe the beginning of March just isn't the time to visit Millenium Park. I figured that it wouldn't be as beautiful as it would be in the summer, but I thought there would something to look at. Well there was- the bean. That's it, just the bean. The faces on the brick walls were not operating, the fountain wasn't on,... more

Millennium Park contains many great things to view and take pictures with. One of the coolest things to see is the giant mirrored bean located at the front of the park, its a great spot to take a picture. more
