Interesting Secrets Of Michigan’s Sleeper State Park

Sleeper State Park is the primary state park in Michigan's Thumb. It has been a spot to visit for more than 95 years with a phenomenal beach and campgrounds. Named for a former Michigan Governor and local banker, Albert E. Sleeper State Park, the recreation center is one of two state parks in the Upper Thumb. Guests can watch the sunrise and dusk on Saginaw Bay, unwind in the shade and withdrawal under the tall oaks in the campsite, or meander the paths in ancient timberlands. It's one of the most broadly visited parks in Southeast Michigan. The recreation center contains amazing insider secrets in what is accessible for the veteran guest.

  Driving by the recreation center, guests quickly observe the day-use park and beach area along the shoreline and the broad 226 site campsite across M-25 from the beach. That is a little cut from the recreation center. Sleeper State Park Michigan has more than 700 sections of land of wetlands, an old ridge woodland, a half-mile of the beautiful sandy beach, and dunes guarding the shore.

  Families and gatherings can go through the day swimming, kayaking, and playing at the beach. At that point, enjoy a reprieve and excursion in the shade under a thick, cool covering of oak trees. There are two impediment available bathrooms and changing regions with showers.

  A huge secured Pavillion is available for rent steps from the beach. It's ideal on the off chance that you have an enormous gathering, for example, a family get-together. The beach is known as a perfect spot for weddings and friends picnics.

  Also known as Caseville State Park, has organized an outdoor supplier that offers individuals a more personal and open outdoor insight. It's designated "glamping." Glamping is where nature meets a touch of roomy extravagance. A combination of the words fabulousness and outdoors or "glamping" is an approach to encounter a touch of distant natural outdoors in unexplored areas.

  The supplier, Tentrr, sets up prime confined locales with a huge platformed walled canvas tents containing a large king bed or cot and a wood oven. Your camp is provided with tables, seats, Adirondack chairs, and a campground fire pit. Your cam

25 Best Things To Do in Chicago, Illinois

There are endless things to do in Chicago and the city surprised us (in a good way) with its bustling downtown core, expansive green spaces, modern art displays, Michelin-starred restaurants and charming neighbourhoods!

No matter your age or travel style, you’ll find sights and activities in Chicago that will pique your interest.

We recently spent a week in the Windy City and could have lingered much longer. With so many exciting things to do in Chicago (and eat!), try to give yourself at least 5 days to explore.

And, contrary to belief, this city is actually one of the best places to visit in January due to having so many indoor sights and amazing festivals during that time.

In this article, I’m going to list not only the obvious things to do in Chicago, but some of the more off-track sites and experiences that we had — and highly recommend.

Note: Don’t miss our travel video of Chicago at the end of this post!

Getting Around Chicago

Thankfully, even though Chicago is a sprawling city of just under 3 million people, the efficient transportation systems make getting around easy and stress-free, with elevated rail lines giving you excellent views of the city while you ride.

Getting from the Airport to Downtown Chicago

Taking public transport (CTA – Chicago Transit Authority) from the airport is the most budget-friendly option. It’s also very straightforward.

The Blue Line runs 24 hours from the O’Hare Airport to downtown Chicago. The journey takes about 40-45 minutes and the cost is $5 (less if you have an unlimited ride pass which you can pick up at the airport and at vending machines around the city).

If you’re arriving at the Chicago Midway International Airport, you can hop on the Orange Line for a 20-25 minute ride to the downtown loop area.

To pay for these journeys, purchase a Ventra card from one of the vending machines at the airport train stations, at Ventra Vending Machines, or over 1,000 Ventra Retailers around the city.

You can buy 1 journey, 1 day or 3-day tickets. The machines accept cash, credit or debit. Click here to learn more about the transport options from the Chicago airports to the downtown area.

Getting Around Chicago

Once you’re in the city, the best ways to get around Chicago are by walking and cycling, or by train, bus and rideshare.

You’ll need to figure out how many times you think you’ll take the CTA buses or trains, and then purchase the appropriate Ventra Card.

If you think you’ll only ride the train or bus a couple of times, you can save money by purchasing individual rides (usually $2.50) and pay as you go.

1 Day CTA Pass for $10 3 Day CTA Pass for $20 7 Day CTA Pass for $28

For maps of the various train lines in the city, click here.

Uber and Lyft are the most popular rideshare companies in Chicago and are frequently used by locals and visitors.

I recommend downloading the Uber and Lyft apps so you can easily get around and enjoy all of the things to do in Chicago.

Google Maps also allows you to call ride shares directly from the app, so you can decide if you want to walk the distance, cycle, use public transport or call an Uber.

City Attraction Passes in Chicago

Since there are so many amazing attractions and things to do in Chicago, you’ll want to consider purchasing an attractions pass. There are 2 main discount cards available:

1. CityPass Chicago

This pass includes:

Shedd Aquarium – Priority Entry

Skydeck Chicago – Fast Pass

The Field Museum – VIP Entry

Museum of Science and Industry OR 360 CHICAGO Observation Deck – Express Entry

Adler Planetarium – VIP Entry OR Art Institute of Chicago – Fast Pass

The cost of the CityPass is $106 for adults and $89 for children aged 3 – 11, and it’s valid for 9 consecutive days.

If you were to visit all of the attractions listed above without the CityPass, it would cost you $217.90.

You need to first decide how many attractions you want to visit while in Chicago and figure out if the CityPass is right for you. Click here to learn more and to purchase the pass.

2. Go Chicago Card

The Go Chicago Card is different from the CityPass in that you are granted free entry to 25 attractions during a set period.

As with the CityPass, you’ll need to add up the attractions you plan to visit and see if this discount card is worth it. Choose between these passes:

“All You Can Do in…”

1 day – $109 for adults, $69 for kids.

2 days – $154 for adults, $109 for kids.

3 days – $184 for adults, $129 for kids.

5 days – $219 for adults, $149 for kids.

By my calculations, if you were to visit the SkyDeck ($24), 360 Chicago ($23), Art Institute of Chicago with Fast Pass ($35), the Ferris Wheel at the Navy Pier ($15) and the Architecture River Cruise ($43), then the cost would be $140.

This makes the 1 day pass worthwhile — and it’s only $14 shy of the cost of the 2-day pass.

These are the included attractions in the Go Chicago Card:

• SkyDeck Chicago • 360 CHICAGO • Field Museum (Admission plus one special exhibit ) • Hop-On Hop-Off Big Bus Chicago: 1-Day Classic Tour • Art Institute of Chicago – Fast Pass Admission • Museum of Science and Industry • Adler Planetarium • Chicago Children’s Museum • Navy Pier Centennial Wheel and Rides • LEGOLAND® Discovery Center • Chicago History Museum • Chicago Architecture Foundation • Museum of Contemporary Art • Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio Tour • Robie House • Historic Chicago South Shore Tour • Grand Tour • Panoramic and Scenic North Side Tour • Chicago Theatre Tour • Brookfield Zoo • Bike and Roll Chicago • Chicago Architecture River Cruise • Tall Ship WINDY • Classic Lake Tour • Lincoln Park Zoo Rides

For more information and details, and to purchase the Go Chicago Card, click here.

Here’s my guide for the top 25 things to do in Chicago during your next trip.

1. Walk – Everywhere!

I had to put this first on the list.

Taking transport is a great way to get around the city, but by walking, you’ll be able to experience all of the in-between bits that makes Chicago so great.

Plus, you’ll be able to burn off some of those calories you’ve consumed after eating so well!

Gaze up at the towering skyscrapers in the downtown area, or saunter down quiet streets in one of the 77+ surrounding neighbourhoods.

There are no real hills in Chicago, the sidewalks are well taken care of and you don’t need to worry about falling off any uneven curbs. If you get tired, call an Uber or hop on the train.

2. Attend a Festival

Chicago is known for hosting many, many festivals.

There are too many to list here, but if you’re interested in music, food, fashion, film, sports, culture, flowers and everything in between, you’ll find a festival that you enjoy.

During the summer months, don’t miss these events:

1. Taste of Chicago

This food/music festival has been running since 1980 and is the largest food festival in the world!

Here you’ll enjoy cuisine from around the globe — Indian, Thai, American, Caribbean, Mexican, European, and much more.

The grounds at Grant Park are free to enter, but you purchase tickets to exchange for sample portions of food, or full meals.

A strip of 14 tickets will run you $10 and a taster portion of food will cost you about 6 tickets.

Make sure you bring your own water though because 500mL of bottled water at the festival will cost you $8! Click here to learn more about the Taste of Chicago, which is held in July.

2. Windy City Smokeout

For BBQ, beer and country music fans, this festival is one you don’t want to miss!

I really feel like this is one of the best things to do in Chicago in the summer and it was probably our favourite festival during our 5-day visit.

There’s a grandstand here that hosts the main music performances, plus another smaller stage towards the back. Wander around and let your nose guide you towards billowing smokers, where 20+ pitmasters from around the country grill up tender meat.

There’s no shortage of succulent, smokey ribs, tasty brisket, pit-roasted pork, and grilled chicken at this event.

Also, make sure to sample some of the craft beers on tap, many of which are from Chicago. I recommend the IPAs from Moody and Tongue and Goose Island. Click here to learn more about the fun Windy City Smokeout event, which is held in July.

3. Grant Park Music Festival

If you’re into classical music, chorus, orchestras and FREE concerts, then don’t miss this one.

Grab a lawn chair or a blanket, pack a picnic and some wine and head down to Millennium Park at the Jay Pritzker Pavillion.

This classical music festival is held yearly for 10 weeks from June to August and has been for more than 80 years. Click here to learn more about the Grant Park Music Festival.

4. Chicago Blues Festival

incredibly, this is another free festival in Chicago!

Not only is entrance free, but it’s the largest music festival in the city. Head down to Millennium Park for the weekend of Jun 8 – 10th and enjoy the show. (more about Blues music in #22 on this list).

3. Go On an Architecture River Cruise

Even if architecture really isn’t your thing, don’t miss the Chicago Architecture River Cruise.

Chicago has numerous towering skyscrapers, and smaller warehouses along the Chicago River, all of which have a story.

Rather than guessing for yourself, the guide on the boat tour will give you some history and describe the design style, all while you sip on a beer and enjoy the sunshine.

We joined the Chicago Architecture Foundation Center River Cruise aboard Chicago’s First Lady and enjoyed the trip. The guide provided excellent information, there was a bathroom and a bar on board and the ship was quite comfortable. The tour is highly rated on TripAdvisor.

There are numerous companies to go with. Shoreline Sightseeing is another highly rated option.

4. Get a Bird’s Eye View (one of the most amazing things to do in Chicago!)

After you’ve seen Chicago by foot and by boat, it’s time to get an aerial view of the city.

A helicopter ride is on pretty much everyone’s bucket list and after flying high above Chicago on a sunset trip, I can say that this truly is something you don’t want to miss.

Together with 5 other people (plus the pilot), you’ll don a headset and soar above Chicago, passing by the Lakefront, Navy Pier and more. The pilot provides information about the buildings down below and will answer any questions you have.

I honestly think that this is one of the best value things to do in Chicago. $138 for a sunset flight in a helicopter over Chicago is worth every penny and is something you’ll never forget. Click here to learn more and to book this tour

*Pro-tip: bring a GoPro camera or some sort of fish eye lens for your smartphone, as it’s hard to get selfies in such a contained space.

5. Visit The Neighbourhoods

As I said above, there are over 77 neighbourhoods in Chicago, each with its own vibe and things to do. Being downtown is great, but try to visit a few of the different neighbourhoods in Chicago.

Our favourite was Pilsen, which was once a predominantly Slavic community, but since the 1960’s it has been home to many Hispanic residents, mostly Mexicans.

Among other things, Pilsen offers bright street art, Mexican food, the National Museum of Mexican Art and the Thalia Music Hall.

Make sure you visit the Mexican museum here to learn about the current issue of gentrification that is effecting Pilsen and some other parts of Chicago.

Wander around at your own pace and enjoy the ‘hood.

Stop in at Jumping Bean for coffee, Canton Regio for Mexican food (and BYOB!), and Michelin starred Dusek’s Board & Beer for tasty cuisine and beers. 3 – 4 hours in Pilsen is plenty of time to explore many of the back streets and funky shops.

Other interesting communities include:

Near West Side: offering fantastic restaurant choices, boutique shops and street art (check out Randolph Street and Fulton Market), this is the foodie hotspot. Check out Michelin starred Girl and The Goat restaurant and have a coffee at the trendy Soho House.

Wicker Park / Bucktown: known for vintage shops, craft cocktails and chilled out spots, spend an afternoon here shopping, dining and checking out the 606 which runs through these neighbourhoods (more on the 606 at #10 on this list). Grab a brew from MapRoom Taphouse, or cool off with an Italian Ice from Miko’s.

Logan Square: an area with a strong sense of community and support of local businesses…with a side of hipster vibes, craft beer and live music. Here you’ll find some of Chicago’s best restaurants, don’t miss Fat Rice (Macanese fusion) and Mi Tocaya Antojeria (Mexican cuisine).

Lincoln Park: a mix of city and nature, Lincoln Park offers a massive green space complete with a lakefront trail and sandy beaches. In this neighbourhood you can listen to blues music, party all night long, go shopping at trendy boutiques, or grab a bike and ride the trails. Try a hotdog from Wiener’s Circle (more on that at #9 on this list) and some Korean chicken at Crisp.

Andersonville: this fun area is home to one of Chicago’s largest gay communities, and is known for being a diverse part of the city. Go to the theatre, devour a tasty burger at Little Bad Wolf and sip on a craft beer from Hopleaf.

6. Dangle Above the City

Conquer your fears and head to the SkyDeck Observatory at the Willis Tower (Sears Tower) and enjoy amazing views of Chicago.

This is one of the most popular attractions in the city, and for good reason! There are 4 glass boxes (ledges) protruding from the top of the Willis Tower where you can walk out on 1.5 inches of glass.

On a clear day, you can see Chicago, plus the 3 neighbouring states of Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan. This is one of the most Instagrammed spots in the city, and one of the most popular things to do in Chicago.

I’m personally terrified of heights and was able to stand (and sit) on this platform.

If you’re nervous as well, know that you are able to inch your way out at your own pace and you can have one foot on “solid” ground and one on the box if it makes you feel more comfortable. Click here to learn more and book tickets for the SkyDeck Experience.

7. Do a Cheese Pull

Inevitably, on your quest for things to do in Chicago, you’ll hear a lot of talk (and debate) about the best pizza in Chicago, but, after sampling a couple, we’ve come to the conclusion that our favourite was Giordano’s.

Now, there are numerous other places that we didn’t get to try, so I suggest going on a hunt for the best pizza and seeing what you come up with.

Giordano’s offers made to order deep dish and thin crust pizzas — taking around 45 minutes to 1 hour to cook.

The pizzas here are tasty, but most importantly, the cheese is incredibly stringy, giving you that ultimate Instagram cheese pull photo. This is one of the best places to eat in Chicago.

8. Explore The Lakefront Trail

Once you’ve got your fill of the city, one of the best things to do in Chicago to get some fresh air is to head to the lakefront. 

At 494 kilometers long and 190 kilometers wide, Lake Michigan is the largest of the Great Lakes and is actually the 6th largest freshwater lake on earth.

Looking at it, you’d be forgiven for thinking that it’s actually more of an ocean than a lake as it even has tidal shifts.

The Lakefront Trail is an uninterrupted, 29 kilometers (18 miles) long, pedestrian-only route. It’s the perfect place for cycling, rollerblading, jogging, or walking.

Along the way, you’ll pass by beautiful beaches, perfect for laying down a towel and going for a swim. Check out Kathy Osterman Beach and Montrose Beach.

To get here, hop on an Uber and choose a point along the trail that you’d like to be dropped off at. I recommend arriving at Kathy Osterman Beach and cycling to Lincoln Park. Which brings me to #9…

9. Rent a Divvy Bike

Divvy Bikes are a great way to explore Chicago — especially along the vehicle-free Riverwalk, 606 walkway, and the Lakefront trail.

These shared bikes are affordable and make for a unique way of getting around the city. Whether you want to just get from point a to point b, or spend a day cycling around, these bicycles are a great transportation option.

Rent yourself a Divvy bike at one of the stations around Chicago and set off to explore the Lakefront Trail at your own pace.

With Divvy bikes, you can rent for 30 minutes ($3) or 24 hours ($15), and pick up and drop off at different locations around the city.

Download the Divvy app to learn where to find bike stations, and whether or not there are any bikes currently docked there.

*Pro-tip: there aren’t any baskets on the front of the bikes, just a bungee cord, so make sure you bring a backpack or something to put your water and sunscreen in.

10. Get Insulted While Eating a Hot Dog

Chicago has numerous iconic foods and snacks, one of which is, of course, a hot dog! Eaten at ball games, tailgate parties, BBQs and on the street, sampling a Chicago style dog while you’re here is a must.

If you’re looking for a hotdog with a side of sass, profanity, and heckling, then make sure to visit The Wiener’s Circle in Lincoln Park.

During the day, it’s a pretty chilled out place, but after 8:00pm and well into the night, it’s a joint that you probably don’t want to bring your kids to.

The staff here make fun of patrons, throwing curse words and insults at everyone who enters! It’s all in good fun though and everyone laughs at each other, and themselves. This institution has been here for over 30 years, and is still going strong.

Wondering where to stay in Chicago?

We stayed in the ideally located Loews Hotel Downtown, and were just steps to the river, Magnificent Mile, Navy Pier and more.

There’s a fabulous rooftop bar and lounge area (perfect for a sundowner) and the onsite travel themed “ETA” restaurant serves up tasty, seasonal meals. The rooms are luxurious and comfortable and offer amazing views – either of the cityscape or the Navy Pier.

If you’re feeling energetic, head down to the gym or for a swim in the 75-foot long lap pool, and if you’d rather relax, head to the calming spa. The staff here are warm, welcoming and incredibly helpful! Click here to learn more about the hotel and to book a room.

11. Wander Along the 606

The 606 is to Chicago what the Highline is to New York, and at only 5 years old, it’s one of the newest things to do in Chicago.

Once an abandoned railway line, this raised trail and green space is now a place for Chicagoans to cycle, jog, walk, skateboard, or rollerblade away from the traffic – from 6:00am to 11:00pm.

Named after the shared zip code prefix of this area of Chicago, the 606 is located in the neighbourhoods of Logan Park, Humboldt Park, Bucktown and Wicker Park and spans 4.3 kilometers (2.7 miles).

This is another great spot to rent a Divvy bike! Click here to learn more about the 606 and to see a map of the area.

12. Tilt Over The City

Yet another adrenaline-inducing thing to do in Chicago!

The “Tilt” is located at the 360 Chicago Observation Deck at the North Michigan Avenue Building (John Hancock Center). If you want to see the city from 314m (1,030 feet) above the ground, while tilting over the building to the streets below, then this is the ride for you.

Basically, you stand against a glass wall facing outwards. Holding onto handles, the glass wall then extends and tilts downwards giving you amazing views of the streets and buildings below.

If you’re feeling uncomfortable, don’t worry, you’re free to step back away from the glass at any time.

If you just want to visit the 94th floor for a drink and to enjoy the incredible sunset views over the city, that’s also possible. Tilting is just an added attraction. Click here to learn more and to purchase tickets for the Tilt.

13. Chow Down on Some Popcorn

Popcorn is one of Chicago’s most popular snacks, so before you say “eating popcorn shouldn’t be considered one of the best things to do in Chicago”, try Garrett’s and you’ll realize why it’s on the list.

This gourmet popcorn shop is located all around the city and offers various flavours — almond caramel crisp, cheese, butter, cashew caramel, macadamia caramel…or mixed.

I recommend the mix of caramel crisp and cheddar cheese. Sweet and savoury! Click here for locations.

14. Hangout By The Chicago River

The Chicago River snakes its way through the city and up until 2016, there wasn’t a way for pedestrians to walk along the river bank.

These days, you can enjoy the new riverwalk which runs for 2 kilometers (1.25 miles) from Lakeshore Drive to Lake Street, giving locals and visitors the opportunity to walk, run, dine and relax along the river.

This walkway is a great addition to the city. Not only can you enjoy some vehicle-free exercise, check out the public art and enjoy the surrounding architecture, but there are numerous places to eat and drink!

Pull up a chair, play some games, or watch the boats go by at the Island Party Hut (beers $7.50, cocktails $14). Grab a glass of wine and some appetizers and people watch at City Winery, or devour some BBQ while enjoying live music at Tiny Tapp.

15. Shop ’til You Drop

As with most big cities in the world, Chicago is home to an incredible shopping scene. From high-end fashion and cute boutiques to low-cost outlets and chains, there’s a shop for you in Chicago.

The Magnificent Mile spans 8 city blocks from Michigan Avenue Bridge to Oak Street and is one of the top spots for shopping in the city.

Here you’ll find designer shops such as Burberry, Chanel, Giorgio Armani and Ralph Lauren, standing next to the department stores of Saks, Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom, Macy’s and Neiman Marcus.

Mixed in with all of these stand-alone shops, you’ll find 3 malls offering souvenirs, toys, sporting goods, makeup, and of course, clothing.

Finally, after your credit card has taken a beating, pop into one of the many restaurants, cafes or bars and grab a bite. For something a little more upscale, don’t miss Top Chef season 15 winner, Joe Flamm’s restaurant, Spiaggia.

The “Mag Mile” is your one-stop-shop for everything you could possibly need.

16. Ride a Ferris Wheel

The Navy Pier is a top landmark in the city and is a great place to enjoy the skyline, go for a walk, see the Crystal Gardens, watch a movie, see a fireworks display, and of course, ride the Ferris wheel.

Fun fact: George Washington Ferris invented the Ferris wheel, and the first one was built for the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893. Entrance to the Navy Pier is free, but if you want to ride the Ferris wheel, it costs $15.

17. Paddle a Kayak

Urban kayaking is one of the most popular things to do in Chicago. After you’ve joined the architecture boat tour and learned all about the buildings, why not grab yourself a kayak and paddle at your own pace?

There are a few companies in the city that offer kayaking tours on the Chicago River, or on Lake Michigan. But, if you feel like going solo, you can also rent a kayak at an hourly rate of around $25. Check out Water Riders or Kayak Chicago for more details.

18. Rent a Boat (one of the best things to do in Chicago with friends)

If Kayaking isn’t your thing, you can also rent electric boats and do a self-drive trip up and down the river. That’s right, you get to be the captain! The boats are easy to drive, just like a golf cart.

The incredible thing about the fleet at the Chicago Electric Boat Company is that they’re all zero emissions. The boats can hold between 10 – 12 people and the rate is from $150 – $215 / hour.

When you divide that price among a group of people, it really is a good deal. See the Chicago Electric Boat Company for details. This is one of the most unique things to do in Chicago with friends.

19. Dine On Rib Eye and Wine

Chicago has one of the hottest food scenes in the country. Even if you don’t consider yourself a total foodie, you’ll be impressed with the cuisine on offer in the city.

If you’re looking for a succulent cut of beef, complemented with a robust glass of red, in a non-pretentious, yet classy atmosphere, then make sure you add RPM Steakhouse to your eating itinerary. This is one of the best places to eat in Chicago.

Not only is the menu seasonal and varied, but the service here is on point. Plus, if you’re not into steaks, there are many other options on the menu including salads, seafood and chicken.

I highly recommend the hamachi crudo, Mediterranean octopus, the rib eye, lobster, huckleberry cheesecake and chocolate cake. Yum!

20. Find The Street Art

Chicago’s artsy side is prevalent in its many public museums, galleries and park sculptures, but if you’re into a more bohemian, graffiti style of art, you’ll want to search for some of the cool street art scattered around the city.

You’ll find numerous murals in the Pilsen neighbourhood, plus a few dotted around Logan Square and Bucktown.

The B_line corridor in the Fulton Market meatpacking district has been recently revived and is now filled with colourful illustrations. Spanning a mile, the walls below the elevated B_line train tracks have been turned into spectacular pieces from artists around the world.

This area is a great example of an open-air art gallery. Wander down West Hubbard Street between Peoria and North Ogden Ave. to find the artwork. To learn more, check out the Instagram page.

21. Sip On Some Craft Beer

You don’t have to be a hipster to enjoy an icy cold glass of craft beer, and what better place to do so than in Chicago, a city that loves its beer.

According to this post, there are currently 72 breweries in the city and 132 in the suburbs!

Obviously, you won’t be able to visit them all on a short trip to Chicago, but definitely check out the IPAs, Ales, Stouts and Lagers on offer at these craft breweries and taprooms: Revolution Brewing, Goose Island and Moody Tongue.

Another great craft beer bar is the aptly named Map Room in Bucktown which has flags from around the world, and over 200 beers from various countries. Have fun wandering around and enjoying the best bars in Chicago!

22. Visit The Parks

There are numerous green spaces in Chicago, and tons of spots where you can lay down a blanket and enjoy a picnic in the sun. There are over 500 parks within the city limits, but make sure to check out these ones:

Millennium Park: home to the Cloud Gate / Bean sculpture, art and exhibition shows, concerts, outdoor workouts, outdoor concerts and dining.

Maggie Daley Park: this activity-filled park offers a climbing wall, playground, skating ribbon (ice in the winter, cement in the summer), mini-golf, tennis courts and much more.

Lincoln Park: located in the neighbourhood of the same name, Lincoln Park offers numerous lakeside cycling trails, beaches, museums, restaurants and a cultural center. This park is 1,208 acres (489-hectares) so make sure you give yourself some time to explore and relax.

*Note: Grant Park actually encompasses Millennium Park, Maggie Daley Park, Buckingham Fountain and the Museum Campus.

23. Enjoy a Night At The Theatre

Touted as the theatre capital of the USA, there are over 250 theatre companies in Chicago! From comedies and musicals to ballets and orchestras, there is a plethora of performances to see in the city.

In the downtown / Loop area, check out the Broadway shows at the Oriental Theatre, concerts at the Auditorium Theatre and popular musicals at the CIBC Theatre.

If you’re into comedies and improv, check out The Second City which is where the likes of Chris Farley, Bill Murray, Tina Fay and Steve Carrell started out.

24. Listen to Blues

For a fun night out in Chicago, I recommend checking out a Blues club. This unique genre of music originated in Mississippi during the slave times in the 1800s, and while those days are over, the soulful music has remained.

The reason Blues music is so popular in Chicago is due to the Great Migration of African-Americans from Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana.

Many of the people who fled the southern states (due to racial discrimination) chose Chicago in hopes that they would find industrial work and a happier life. With them, they brought their amazing music.

Check out Kingston Mines, House Of Blues, Buddy Guy’s Legends and B.L.U.E.S. Most of these places also serve up tasty southern-inspired cuisine.

Fun fact: although blues music didn’t originate in Chicago, back in the 1980’s House Music was created by DJ’s and producers in underground clubs. The next time you’re dancing to electronic music, remember, you have Chicago to thank for those beats!

25. Watch a Game

Chicago is home to professional sports teams and depending on which time of the year you visit, make sure you attend a game.

Whether you’re into hockey, football, soccer, baseball or basketball, Chicago has a professional team on offer. Many of these teams have won championships, but the most popular sports in the city are by far baseball and football.

For baseball fans, head to Wrigley Field for a Cubs game, or to Guaranteed Rate Field for a White Sox game (click the links to see ticket prices). If football is your thing, make your way to Soldier Field for a Bears game.

For hockey, cheer on the Chicago Blackhawks at the United Center. For basketball fans, The Chicago Bulls play at the United Center, while the WNBA team Chicago Sky is at Wintrust Arena.

The Chicago Fire and Chicago Red Stars soccer teams play at the Toyota Park venue.

Sports are a huge part of life in Chicago and Chicagoans are very passionate about their teams.

Enjoy a live game alongside these awesome fans, or share in the camaraderie at one of the many sports bars. Watching sports with a hotdog and beer in hand is one of the top things to do in Chicago for sure.

Bonus! 26. Gaze Up at The Fireworks

During the summer months from May 26 – September 1, the Navy Pier puts on a spectacular show.

Make your way down to the pier on Wednesdays (9:30pm) and Saturdays (10:15pm) and enjoy the fireworks show, synchronized to music.

Watch the sky light up while sitting on the pier, or from a boat on the river or lake. This is one of the best things to do in Chicago in the summer. Click here to learn more and to see the schedule.

Bonus! 27. Join a Free Walking Tour

Walking tours are an excellent way to get a quick and informative introduction to cities around the world. We’ve joined walking tours in Medellin, Tirana, Berlin, Edinburgh, Florence and Rome (to name a few), and it’s always been an amazing experience.

In Chicago, the guides are locals and are very knowledgable about their city. Expect to learn about the history of Chicago, the various buildings, and where to eat and drink — all while being entertained by great storytellers.

You can choose from architecture tours in various parts of the city, at different times of the day. This is one of the best budget-friendly things to do in Chicago.

The tours are generally around 2 hours long, which is great as it doesn’t take up your whole day. As a bonus, the tours are “free” and you’re only expected to give a tip if you’re happy with the service.

It’s more of a “pay what you like” situation. Click here to learn more about Free Tours By Foot.

Now You Know What To Do in Chicago

One of the things that makes Chicago such an enjoyable city is that you can be surrounded by traffic and skyscrapers one minute, and the next, find yourself relaxing on the river or lakefront. All within just a few minute’s drive. 

There are endless fun things to do in Chicago and hopefully this list gave you some inspiration for your next trip. All I can say is make sure to give yourself enough time in Chicago, but if not, you could always come back…

Where do I live ?

I live in the southern residential district referred to as Parkdale-South-Shoreline, which runs along the coast line of Lake Ontario in Toronto. My district is classified as the first suburb west of downtown Toronto, nestled below the scenic High-Park hills, filled with a high population of working professionals, who appreciate scenically beautiful views, walks along the lakeshore and tree-lined streets with access to all of the city’s highways and transit points. My neighbourhood is a cultural mix of all of Toronto’s ethnic groups, highly progressive individuals who share the common goal of maximizing the City’s advancement. The Parkdale South Shoreline district has some of the best residential features, however it also has specific density issues for which a large amount of infrastructure assistance has been required from the City of Toronto to maximize the efficiency of the district.

Some of the benefits of Parkdale-South, specifically across the shoreline of Lake-Ontario in Toronto, is that the neighbourhood has the approximate distribution of the population representing 21,849 residents,  50.3% are female, 49.7% males. The majority of the population is between 25-39 years old, and are working professionals. This is a great area for young relationships to form. Of the residents, 12,030 are of working age between 25-54yrs old. The visible minority population of the area is 48.1%, although slightly lower than the visible minority population of Toronto which is 51.5%, the district is highly inclusive.  The ethnic groups in the highest proportion are European lineage (Polish, Germanic, Slavik, British), Middle-Eastern, Indo-Canadian and Caribbean. The number one language spoken is English, followed by Polish,German, Croatian and Arabic. The community of Parkdale South-Shorline has continually evolved  over the years, given that there is an increase in residents between the ages of 25-54, with household incomes greater than $69,000 per year, and the median age of 35.5 years old. There is a large increase in one-family households in the area when compared to the City of Toronto. This increase in single family households is attributed to the rapid development of high-rise condo housing units. Residents of the area enjoy the outdoor recreational aspects of the area which includes boating, sailing, paddle-boarding, cycling, running, yoga in the parks, dog-walking privileges and access to the events at the Sunny-Side Pavillion, swimming at the Sunny-Side Pavillion Pool and potential membership in the famous Boulevard Club for sailing, tennis and private events.

The unique challenges of the community is the housing type. The area is privy to multiple condos, stacked town-homes, low rise rental buildings and an assortment of tudor styled homes that were built in the early 1900s which have narrow strips of land, and are tightly situated. The area was considered a suburb when Toronto began to form.  Given that most residents  are of working age, those who are in partnerships raising children choose to live in the area to access some of the great elementary schools such as: Park Lawn Junior Middle School, St. Vincent De Paul Catholic School, High Park Gardens Montessori School, and the Ursula Franklin Academy. The infrastructure is densely populated due to the traffic-centric position of the neighbourhood which is situated between Queensway, Lakeshore Blvd, and the Gardener Expressway. The neighbourhood is highly diverse with 48.1% of the residents listed as visual minorities. There is an 81.1% employment rate amongst residents, however due to the proximal location of real estate, 86.6% of the residents are renters and do not own their property. There is a decline in the aging population, however there are very few unemployed, or low-income residents. The unique challenge that faces the neighbourhood is traffic congestion, lack of sufficient parking and road access, given the density levels, it is a busy area at all times. The district is anchored by Lake Ontario to the South, St.Joseph’s Hospital and The Roncesvalles restaurant market district to the east, and Sobey’s with the Ontario food terminal next door to the west.

Toronto’s City planning and zoning office has attempted to assist the community to adjust to the infrastructure challenges by boosting above ground railway expansion of the TTC 501-streetcar rail system, which runs 24-hours per day to help reduce the need for an automobile, greater TTC bus route access to the MIMICO GO Train station through the Queensway-80 bus route;  the routes provide more frequent trips in order to distribute commuters effectively. Additionally, the main transit route off King Street has designated areas which are street-car only lanes during peak driving times, preventing other automobiles from accessing these restricted areas – with the goal to increase effective access to the core of the city’s financial districtt, assisting commuters to penetrate the core of the city more expediently – given that downtown Toronto is the hub directly responsible for the highest amount of employment for residents of the Parkdale South-Shoreline community.

While the neighbourhood of Parkdale South-Shorline offers transportation support for working-age residents who are heavily connected to corporate employment in the downtown core, the neighbourhood has some of the best views, parks, recreation and proximal distance to Roncesvalles restaurants - which enhances inclusion and tolerance through its positioning as a pedestrian friendly shopping, dinning, and entertainment canal;  You will find that Parkdale South has very progressive thinkers, concept embracers, multicultural relationships, and open-minded individuals, which helps to increase comfort for all who live in the area.  Parkdale South characterizes the positive conception that Canada is indeed nation for all.
