If you’re looking for places to visit that are visually and audibly stunning, spark the imagination, are in close proximity, appeal to the whole family, and are educational to boot, one of the best and most unique ideas is Chicago’s own Museum Campus, located on the shores of Lake Michigan, a short distance from downtown. While two components of the Museum Campus include the historic Soldier Field football and soccer stadium (home of the Chicago Bears) and the gigantic McCormick Place convention center, it’s also home to three of the city’s most famous and beloved attractions: the Shedd Aquarium, the Adler Planetarium, and the Field Museum of Natural History.
