#passionpassport Daley, Millennium Park is the largest public space within the 319 acres of downtown Chicago's Grant Park. It was established in 2004 and is now one of the biggest free attractions of the city, rivaling only the Lincoln Park Zoo. That's mostly because of its popular "Bean" installation, Cloud Gate. The Millennium Parking Garages and a railroad yard can be found underneath Millennium Park, making it one of the largest green roofs in the world.

So I’m always going to call this the #searstower cause for me growing up and was larger than life. It was the world’s tallest building for much of my childhood and still a damn good place to take photos of downtown #chicago. #tripaway #tripaway

Willis Tower was once the world's tallest building, and although the first name is no longer there, the Willis Tower is still the brightest point in the Chicago skyline and the best place to see Chicago. Take the elevator for 70 seconds to reach the 103-story Skyscraper, overlooking Chicago's dense skyline, Lake Michigan, and Chicago's checkerboard streets. The night view of Chicago is worth seeing because it is the city with the most skyscrapers in the United States, and it is also a city where rare streets are so neatly distributed. The most special thing here is its skydeck, where there are four glass balcony boxes that extend beyond the building. People stand in the glass box, all around is completely transparent, very exciting, you can stand in the glass box Inside, look down on the city under the 103rd floor, or even sit and lie on the glass balcony, you are not bold enough!

Visit The Art Institute of Chicago

A perfect place to explore in a cold snowy day. Located very close to Millenium Park. The Highlights of this place were definitely the Van Gogh exhibits, specifically the self portrait. The other favourite was the Miniature Rooms exhibits at LL. General admission was $25 per person and free admission for below 14 years. What an awesome deal. The galleries were beautifully presented. #urbanexplorer

Welcome to Chicago!

Overview of this magnificent city: “Chicago is located in the Midwest along the Great Lakes shoreline. It is the third largest city and metropolitan area in the United States with a city population approaching 3 million and a metro population approaching 10 million. Chicago is a huge vibrant city and metropolitan area that sprawls over 10,874km². ” During my lovely time in Chicago, here’s what I did: Millenium Park, The Bean, The Loop, Architecture cruise (100% worth it), ghosts tour (Chicago is known for its many ghost stories). I also checked out The Green Mill (Al Capone’s old hangout bar). I was mostly walking around enjoying Chicago’s beauty! Restaurants- I found some nice pubs near the river but my favorite was by far Lou Malnati’s deep dish pizza!! There was a long wait but it was well worth it in my opinion. Have a blast in Chicago! #chicago #usa #solotravel #foodieheaven #beautifuldestination

Chicago Museum

It was like taking a tour of whole century in an hour. I have read about the slavery system in America but walking through this museum, there were times when I had to hold back my tears. So, if you are looking for something educational and historical, go for it! Plus, there is a surprise in it! Do press the 'Don't Press' Button, near the Mayor section. The robot in it, is so amazing, that we almost thought that was the real person. #urbanexplorer

There are about 138 restaurants, cafes and bars in the country, covering a wide range of cuisines that cater to anyone's dietary needs. The ICE Dishes and Drinks Bar, located in Terminal 3, was named "one of the best airport bars in the world" by Executive Travel Magazine. After the security check, I was hungry. I walked into a shop, ordered a cup of coffee, and spent the last time in Chicago leisurely. It was a perfect ending to the journey. Tips Address: 10000 W O'Hare Ave
