3 days in Chicago Itinerary

A huge and vibrant city, Chicago is home to top-notch theaters, shops, museums, galleries, and restaurants.

Chicago Riverwalk and Baha'i House of Worship will appeal to history buffs. Step out of the city life by going to Lakefront Trail and Whihala Beach. Go for a jaunt from Chicago to Merrillville to see Albanese Candy Factory about 1 hour away. The adventure continues: admire the masterpieces at Richard H. Driehaus Museum, stroll around Millennium Park, engage your brain at Museum of Science and Industry, and admire the natural beauty at Lincoln Park Conservatory.
