It has such a rich culture that it always appears right on top of everyone\u2019s list of favorite cities to visit in the US. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The moment you land, book a <\/span><b>Universal Taxi <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">right away. From there, rush off to these top Chicago attractions that you should never miss:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><i>Millennium Park<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s just so much to see at Millennium Park that it\u2019s one place around the city that never gets old. You can visit the famed Cloud Gate (more popularly known as The Bean), a sculpture by Anish Kapoor, or walk through the Lurie Garden. Enjoy the Crown Fountain, or the Pritzker Pavilion. If you\u2019re lucky, you may even end up catching an outdoor concert or show.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><i>The Art Institute of Chicago<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With over 300,000 artworks within its walls, we highly doubt that you\u2019ll get tired of this amazing landmark right away. They house art from all over the world, with creations dating way back to the ancient times all the way to more modern pieces. The place itself is a work of art and is one of the most fabulous pieces of architecture around the city.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><i>Adler Planetarium<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve experienced the Sky Theater at the Adler Planetarium, you can definitely say that you\u2019ve been to space and beyond. It features the best resolution and quality among all space virtual reality trips around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><i>360 Chicago<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you plan on conquering your fear of heights, this is the destination that you should never miss. Previously known as the John Hancock Observatory, it gives you the best views of the entire city and the neighboring areas from 1000 feet above the ground. If you\u2019ve got the guts to do it, you can try the Tilt attraction. It\u2019s a platform that extends from the building, then tilts at a 30\u00b0 angle to give you that heart-dropping impression that you\u2019re slowly falling off the building.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><i>The Navy Pier<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want excellent views of Lake Michigan, the Navy Pier is the best place to go to. It has a 150-foot high Ferris wheel and an 18-hole mini-golf course. You can also watch movies in its IMAX cinema, or catch a concert or two set on the Family Pavilion Stage. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><i>Wrigley Field<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowing that the Cubs have finally broken the 108-year drought by winning the 2016 World Series, it\u2019s even more important that you visit Wrigley Field. You can enjoy any of the tours offered in and around the stadium, or you can go ice skating just outside the field during the winter season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are just 6 attractions, but they\u2019re already enough to wow you and endear you even more to the Windy City. If you want to experience more, just ask your <\/span><b>Universal Taxi <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cabbie for recommendations.
