The Bean

The Cloud Gate, or better known as ’The Bean’, is one of the largest permanent outdoor installations in the world. It is made of stainless steel and is polished to perfection so that there are no visible seams. It’s one of those things that is just cool to look at. You can see different parts of the skyline depending on where you stand.

Navy Pier

The Pier is so big and full of things to do that it has become the cure to a boring day. Originally built for storing military personnel, the Pier can accommodate 100,000 people. It’s 34 acres of restaurants, shopping, tours, conventions, rides, and entertainment.
