The Art Institute of Chicago: The Essence of Art

As the home to the second-largest collection of Impressionist works in the world, following the Louvre in Paris, The Art Institute of Chicago is a mecca for art lovers. Here you can encounter masterpieces by Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, and Georges Seurat all in one place. Seurat's masterpiece 'A Sunday on La Grande Jatte' is a symbol of the museum. Feel the very essence of art in this vast collection.

 

The Field Museum: The Majesty of Nature

If you want to encounter the wonders of nature and the history of humanity, The Field Museum is the answer. Standing majestically in the museum lobby, 'Sue,' the gigantic T-Rex fossil, is the museum's symbol and captivates all visitors. You can learn about the history of Earth in a vivid way through the Egyptian mummies and various specimens of animals and plants, making for an unforgettable memory for all ages.

 

The Museum of Science and Industry: A Stimulus for Curiosity

For those who love to participate and experience, we recommend The Museum of Science and Industry. As the largest science museum in the Western Hemisphere, this is an exciting place where you can learn about scientific principles not just by looking at exhibits but by touching and manipulating them. It is filled with unique experiences, such as boarding 'U-505,' a German submarine from World War II, and walking inside a huge Boeing 727 aircraft model.
