Experience 26 gardens in one or bike along nearly 100 miles of winding trails at the world famous Chicago Botanic Garden. The Garden is a great place for kids and families. Explore with your eyes, nose, ears and hands in the sensory garden or take the boardwalk through the Aquatic Garden, then walk over the water on the Serpentine Bridge to Evening Island. When you get hungry, stop by The Garden Café for breakfast and lunch or have dinner at the Evening Grille.

When you’re done exploring the Chicago Botanic Garden, enjoy a relaxing evening at the Ravinia. The 3,200-seat open-air covered Pavilion is the summer home of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and showcases jazz luminaries, and some of the greatest pop, folk, blues and country musicians of today. If you prefer informal sitting, Ravinia’s lawn offers a great place to picnic while enjoying live music.
