And as long as we're on the subject of museums, let's head to "Museum Campus," an area on the Lakefront between Hyde Park and Downtown that houses three of Chicago's best museums.
The first, and probably most famous, of these is the Field Museum of Natural History which you see here. This museum is also huge with exhibits on geology, natural history, various cultures (including African, Native American, Eskimo, etc), ancient Egypt, and many other subjects.
