Chicago United States Parks

Parks

In spite of the fact that Chicago is the third largest metropolitan area of the United States of America with a significant number of skyscrapers and other multistoried buildings and edifices, this city has been always going through the history with a great tradition of saving, maintaining, taking care, and paying a lot of attention to its open spaces. This diligence was generously rewarded as nowadays the Chicago Park District manages over 220 plush facilities within the territory of the city, with more than 7300 acres of parkland, 552 parks, 33 beaches, and 10 bird and wildlife gardens.

The most outstanding of the 552 Chicago parks is Grand Park, beautifully set along the lakefront, south of the Chicago River, turning out at the same time to be a hot spot for those who are eager to have a rejuvenating stroll and for those, longing to relax near the water.

This park is a home to the Buckingham Fountain, as well as to Museum Campus. The outdoor concerts and annual the Taste of Chicago Festival are held on its vast property.

25 miles west of Chicago you’ll find one more fantastic venue, named Cantigny Park, spreading on 500 acres and hosting the McCormic Museum, the First Division Museum, the two golf courses, Fareways Restaurant, and 15 acres of gorgeous gardens.

135-acre Columbus Park will please you with peaceful waterfalls, renovated banquette hall, a boxing gym, and a game room. The park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

When arriving in exceptional Garfield Park 185 acres of the calming nature will be in your full disposal. It will be great either for an open-air picnic, a quick jog, or a bike ride.

Jackson Park represents in itself a refined Japanese garden, having on its property many lakefront beaches.

Linkoln Park is a proud of the city, named after the 16^th United State president and maintained opulent ponds, walking paths, and stunning lake.
