It was a must see! From the bean to the little shops and great food on the patio. Best time to go is In the morning.. Late afternoon it is crowded.

On a sunny day this is a wonderful public space, the cloud/bean is outstanding as is the rest of the park. People watch to your hearts content - beautiful.

I loved walking on the shore, watching the bikers, skaters, walkers, runners, and sitters. It was beautiful and I'm glad the city has someplace to enjoy nature. The skyscrapers get a little oppressive after a half day of walking around.

It's Millennium Park. And it meets all expectations. Just grab a coffee and cruise around. Chicago does so many things right and this public space is at the top of the list. Enjoy!

The park is beautiful and green in May with much to look at. Don't make the mistake of taking the bridge over the avenue thinking it will take you across the street....it goes directly into the Art Institute only.
