A free palace on Michigan Ave across from Millennium Park: the world's largest Tiffany stained-glass dome, a grand marble staircase, free rotating exhibits, and weekend family programs; a place to duck out of the cold in winter and the heat in summer when you're downtown.
💡 Tips
Open daily with no admission; there are elevators, so strollers are fine. The visitor center and restrooms are on the first floor. Combine it with Millennium Park and Maggie Daley.What this place offers
