The exhibits are all fantastic. You could easily spend two days there without seeing it all.
Had a wonderful experience visiting all of the exhibits at the Field museum. So much to see! Be sure to arrive when it opens at 9am to ensure you have time to see it all. Great for all ages!
The mummy exhibit has been a favorite since I was a kid, not to mention the stunning architecture!
Visit often, the exhibits change regularly, and be sure to visit the Great Train Story, it's an amazing train layout!
The Peanuts Exhibit is awesome!
Every single time I'm in Chicago, I try to visit this museum. It's my favorite place to go here; I adore all the exhibits, plus it's totally kid (and family) friendly.
You can spend the whole day here so get an early start. Has a fantastic collection and also visiting exhibits from masters you won't want to miss. Check out the fun gift store on your way out. This
The Magritte exhibit is great! Aside from the art, the actual installation is very well done.
Fab variety and architectural modernity. Love the miniature house exhibit.
One of the nation's largest facilities devoted to the art of our time the Museum offers exhibitions of art created since 1945. It boasts a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.
Love the changing exhibits and always serves for a refreshing break in the hustle and bustle of chicago (by midwest standards) Read more.
A must see in downtown. The rotating exhibitions are fantastic. Every show I've seen at MCA has helped me better understand contemporary art.
Definitely worth a stop on Monday (free day)- the exhibits and dioramas are amazing! I did pick up some interesting history adaptations that my Texas textbooks must have "left out." Great place!
I love going here for free concerts, events, and art exhibits. Also, the building itself is well worth the experience, complete with beautiful mosaic-tile ceilings.
Drop in on a Sunday afternoon, usually there is a free musical performance and there's always great exhibits to explore. It's one of the great FREE go-to spots in Chicago!
Lincoln exhibit was awesome! Loved that they had a few personal items on display.
The Museum’s permanent exhibition, Chicago: Crossroads of America, explores the city’s economy, crises, innovation, neighborhoods & entertainment. Features include Abraham Lincoln’s death bed.
The stingray exhibit is wonderful!
A very nice aquarium to go to and many cool exhibits to explore. The dolphin show is very nice to see. They have many free days as well for Illinois residents.Check it out! You won't regret it!
Very crowded, kind of exhausting but loved the exhibits and so did my daughter!
I enjoy visiting this zoo, especially the gorilla exhibit and the farm. However, I would really like to see the big cat building renovated/expanded.
A very fun place to see many animals and the exhibits and best of all its free admission!
Plenty to see, great scenery and pretty informative signs at the exhibits. Overall is a great experience.
NMMA has been a proud supporter of the LBGTQA community at large, hosting Queer Prom, and a wealth of other Community events, they also have amazing art exhibits, and are largely free!
I loved the Museum, I wish it had more exhibitions and a bigger facility.
One of the best museums in the city. If you're in town during the annual Dia de Los Muertos exhibit, you're in for a treat!
The membership is a huge deal - $95 for Chicago resident families includes all exhibits yearly plus guest passes - up to 6 kids (including friends of your kids)
Don't miss "Astronomy & Culture," an exhibit dedicated solely to the history of astronomy throughout the world.
The exhibits aren't anything special; however, the planetarium and the shows are amazing! Also, best view of the city skyline.
Exploring Trees exhibit is a must if you have little ones.
The butterfly house is a winter haven. Kids will love the water play area and the kids area. The changing exhibits upstairs are usually great.
Check out Nature on Tap, the last Tuesday of every month from 6 to 9:30 p.m., to awaken your inner child. This is an adults-only event that includes admission to all exhibits and local craft beer. Read more.
Great Tiffany exhibit!
The home is beautiful and very well preserved. The Downton Abbey exhibit was well done and well placed through the home. Skip the tea service - it's badly executed. Have tea at The Drake instead.
Beautifully preserved 1883 home with interesting exhibits.
One of my fav Chicago landmarks. Wish they'd do more with the inside though. Maybe some history of the tower and not some lame art exhibit.
Don't miss the exhibit Inside
Hang out and look at the art exhibit and warm up!
Great place to learn about our history. Awesome courtyard. Always a great rotation of exhibitions on the lower level.
Free on Sundays! The Harold Washington exhibit is super interesting if you don't know much about Chicago history.
