Lincoln Park Zoo
It's enormous, it's full of animals, it's open all year round, and, best of all, it's (gasp!) free. The Lincoln Park Zoo is one of the single greatest things to do in Chicago. Visit the monkeys in their house of hilarity, or swing past the penguin kingdom and watch them entertain themselves (and you) with slippery antics and tuxedo-clad fun. There are plenty of places to snag energy-packed snacks along the way, and if you feel the need for a memento just swing by the souvenir shop for a huge selection of trinkets and memorabilia. In the winter the zoo also features the ZooLights, a jaw-dropping display of Edisonesque wizardry guaranteed to impress even the biggest of skeptics.More Recommendations

View of Downtown Chicago
Lincoln Park Zoo is a beautiful park, small zoo and conservatory. There are so many places to sit and rest and take in the beautiful scenery. Not to be missed (during warmer weather)!
