Chicago
Chicago is known worldwide for its modern skyscrapers and iconic buildings, like Willis Tower, John Hancock Center and the Art Institute of Chicago. The city’s architectural gems are so well-known, in fact, that the Chicago Architecture Foundation offers more than 85 guided tours dedicated to the city’s design, including signature walking tours like Evolution of the Skyscraper. The city even offers a self-guided tour for those who want to mix and match architectural highlights, including those along the Magnificent Mile and River North.
