The John Hancock Center is a place you can visit by appointment. Group tours in Chicago generally do not include activities in this place, but you can stop by here when you are traveling on your own to get to know some of the characteristics of American architecture and culture.
We took a city sightseeing bus. After we climbed the tower (booked sightseeing tickets online for a better deal), we ordered a drink at the bar (reasonable price is key) and looked out at the view. We spent 2 hours there. Although we didn't have the courage to try to look out from the sky, it was still quite interesting to watch others (especially the brave young people) do this. Everyone had a different expression.

Grant Park is also a good place to visit for free. The most common people you see are locals doing outdoor sports. Running is very popular and can be seen at different times of the day. There are also some people walking their dogs.
Grant Park is a large urban park in downtown Chicago. Located in the city's central business district, the park's features include Millennium Park, Buckingham Fountain, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Museum Campus.

Nice place. This was in winter during Christmas. A lot of fun!!!
We recently visited Navy Pier in Chicago, and it was such a fun experience! Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a local like us from Arlington Heights, Navy Pier truly offers something for everyone.The atmosphere is lively, with beautiful lakefront views and a great mix of activities. We loved walking along the pier, taking in the sights of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline — it’s the perfect place for a relaxing stroll.

Before riding the elevator to the top, there’s an exhibition introducing Chicago. It covers architecture, famous people from the city, food, and more. At the tower’s summit, you can take in a panoramic view of the entire city. It’s definitely a worthwhile experience.
We recently went to Willis Tower to experience The Ledge…a must must try adventure if you are not frightened of heights. The entrance to the tower gives you a close interaction with the history of the city. There are several photo booths to take pictures.

Chicago is also a pedestrian-friendly city. All the attractions are relatively concentrated and not far away. Although public transportation is very convenient, walking will unlock a different Chicago. Before coming to Chicago, I thought it would be like other cities. After coming here, I was shocked by the skyscrapers here. The skyscraper skyline is comparable to that of New York. Along the way, I walked along the coast and kept running around me. If you have time, you can take a cruise to unlock Chicago from a different angle.
Michigan Avenue is also a very interesting place. This street is a relatively prosperous place in Chicago. There are many shopping stores to choose from and many tourists. The street is crowded with tourists morning and night. It is a very nice place.
