Millennium Park - Lurie Garden
According to the garden's official web site: Lurie Garden is made possible by a $10 million endowment gift made by the Ann and Robert H. Lurie Foundation and generous support of garden by private citizens, garden clubs, industry supporters, among many others. The Millennium Park Foundation manages and oversees the endowment, as well as the garden’s annual budget and operations.
For me, it gives you a feeling of your secret garden where you go for peace and serenity.

Millennium Park - BP Bridge
Named for energy firm BP, which donated $5 million toward its construction, it is the first Gehry-designed bridge to have been completed. BP Bridge appears like a silver metal snake with tall building of town Chicago as back drop. It is breathtaking view with the dark clouds and tall building of town Chicago as back drop in the evening.
Millennium Park
Just few blocks away from down town Chicago, I consider it is one of the most beautiful and enjoyable park in the world.
Originally established to celebrate the 2000 millennium year the site was opened 4 years later in 2004. by 2017 it had become the number one tourist attraction in the Midwestern United States.
Highlights of the park include:
-Crown Fountain
-Cloud Gate:
-Jay Pritzker Pavillon and Great Lawn
-Lurie Garden
-Wrigley Square Millennium Monument
-BP Bridge
Below is a imagine of park in map.
