Chicago Riverwalk
Loop riverfront, United States
The Riverwalk brings you below street level and close to the water, creating a more intimate way to experience the downtown architecture. Walk a stretch without rushing, looking back at the bridges and noticing how the waterfront changes from one section to the next. It works particularly well before dinner or after an architecture cruise, when the buildings have acquired names and stories. Treat food and drink stops as optional pauses, with seasonal openings checked locally.
