Located on the shore of Lake Michigan, Navy Pier has a history of nearly 100 years and is an iconic attraction in Chicago. Navy Pier is very large, it is U-shaped, with plazas and shops in the middle, and a walkway on the side, walking along the walkway, you can enjoy the view of Lake Michigan. At the end of the pier is the confluence of the Chicago River and Lake Michigan. There is a plaza on which stands a large iron anchor, which was given to the Navy Pier by the cruiser Chicago as a memorial. 1. There is a sightseeing cruise at the entrance to the south side of the pier. You can buy a ticket here to get on the boat and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Michigan on the boat. At night, there are many open-air bars and cafés along the promenade of the marina. When you are tired of playing, you can find a place to sit and enjoy the beautiful view of Lake Michigan, sip a cup of coffee or beer, and even look up at the brightly lit Ferris wheel in the night. 2. Surrounding attractions The large playground by the lake, covering an area of 50 hectares, has everything from parks, shops to restaurants and attractions. You can board the Ferris wheel for a panoramic view, or go for a merry-go-round, sky swing, mini golf, and more. The pier also has the Chicago Children's Museum (ChicagoChildren'sMuseum), Chicago Shakespeare Theater (ChicagoShakespeareTheater) and IMAX Theater. 3. Fireworks show From the end of May to the beginning of September, every Wednesday and Saturday, fireworks will be set off here to commemorate the people who once joined the army.United States · Chicago

Shedd Aquarium is home to tens of thousands of aquatic animals across thousands of species, including tropical coral reef fish, Amazon River basin species, and marine mammals such as beluga whales and dolphins. Upon entering the aquarium, you first arrive at the "Waters of the World" exhibit area in the central rotunda. It features two large, side-by-side tanks showcasing marine and freshwater ecosystems. One side simulates a tropical coral reef, where live coral and colorful tropical fish create an underwater view, while the other side presents a freshwater ecosystem with schools of freshwater fish swimming among upright aquatic plants. Beyond the rotunda, there are several other permanent exhibits, each with its own unique features. The "Amazon Rising" exhibit recreates the scene of the Amazon rainforest flooded during the rainy season. The "Wild Reef" exhibit is located below the main building and simulates the coral reef ecosystem of the Philippine Sea. The shark tank, featuring a curved viewing window, is the highlight here, where sharks and rays swim right before your eyes. The marine mammal exhibit is home to beluga whales, Pacific white-sided dolphins, sea otters, and California sea lions, with lower-level viewing windows offering an underwater perspective of the beluga whales and dolphins swimming. Families with children can head to the "Polar Play Zone" interactive area, which features a penguin exhibit pool, underwater viewing windows, and a touch pool where you can touch intertidal animals like starfish.United States · Chicago

The naval pier was quite lively. The Ferris wheel turned slowly, and riding it made me a little nervous. The lake breeze was cool on my face, and children ran around with cotton candy in hand. There were food stalls inside the large sailboat-shaped building; I bought some fries and sat by the lake, watching seagulls circle around, waiting for the crumbs to fall. A band was playing the saxophone in a pavilion, their tune languid and lazy. By the time I came out, it was already dark, and the lights were quite beautiful.
