Baha'i Temple
Things To Do

It's the only Baha'i Temple in North America. It also looks more like something you'd find in Istanbul. If you're a fan of cultural juxtaposition, it doesn't get much better than this. Making a trip up to the much more tranquil nearby Evanston will also be a fantastic break from the hustle and bustle of the city.

It's the best brewery tour you can find. Once a week: 11am every Saturday, they give a full showing. It's limited so plan to be in line. 2hr tour that goes into everything: brewing, ingredients, buying, building, and the business itself. Other tours may show you what they do. Half Acre will tell you how to do it yourself. 3-4 full pint samples too.

You won't need to pay a cent. As an architectural mecca for American architects, Chicago's skyline is one of the greatest this side of the world. From this angle, you really see the widest angle of the skyline. On a calm evening, the skyline reflects magnificently off Lake Michigan. You'll see a handful of tourists, but it's pretty sparse.

Anyone into landscape architecture or the Prairie school of architecture will appreciate Caldwell's design, and flower and plant lovers will enjoy the flora.
