Navy Pier - A combination of carnival, food court, and boat dock, the pier makes a fun place to stroll (if you don't mind crowds), but you'll have to walk all the way to the end to get the best views back to the city.

Open year round, the winds off the lake make Navy Pier more of a summer pleasure than a winter one, but there's still much for families to do here even when those cold winds blow. Some of the family-favored rides, activities, museums, gardens, theaters, shops, cruises, and of course, restaurants on the Pier include: Rides : Navy Pier 's most visible attraction, the 150-foot-high Ferris wheel ,... more

See both IMAX and regular films at this well-appointed giant screen theater.

In Short The massive IMAX screen makes an impression, as evidenced by the successful "Late Night at the MAX" series, in which 70-millimeter action and special-effects blockbusters like "The Matrix" and "Gladiator" have been shown. The theater shows the usual nature-documentary-type IMAX films as well.

Created more for sight-seers than for thrill-seekers, this wheel transports passengers very slowly, but gives a good view.

In Short Chicago was home to the world's first Ferris wheel at the 1893 World Colombian Exposition. It stands 150 feet tall, with Lake Michigan and the lakefront spread out below. In the evening, thousands of lights illuminate the Ferris wheel's 40 long spokes, creating a nighttime spectacle. The 40 gondola cars each hold as many as six people. If you take the ride, bring a camera and... more

The ultimate viewing experience. We don't like dishing out 14.00 a person, but we love the crazy big sceen. We don't go often, because of price, but when we go, we have a great time.

Ferris Wheel Navy Pier

Last June I was on vacation in Chicago for the first time and off course me and my friends were going to visit the Navy Pier. The first thing I saw was the Ferris Wheel, and one friend told me to go in there so I could see the whole skyline of Chicago and a view on Michigan Lake.
