The Art Institute of Chicago 👩‍🎨

#artmuseum Visiting the Art Institute of Chicago was an absolute highlight of my trip to the Windy City! 🎨 Nestled right in the heart of downtown, just off Millennium Park, this museum is a must-see for anyone who loves art or history. The entrance fee is $25 for adults, but I found it totally worth it for the sheer size and quality of the collections. If you’re a Chicago resident, you get a discount, which is a nice perk! I spent hours wandering through the galleries, with iconic works like American Gothic and Nighthawks being my personal favorites. The impressionist wing, featuring Monet, Van Gogh, and Degas, was an absolute dream—seeing A Sunday on La Grande Jatte up close felt surreal. The museum itself is massive, so plan to spend at least half a day here. Nearby, you can stroll through Millennium Park to see The Bean or head to the Chicago Riverwalk for beautiful views. It’s all in the same area, making it perfect for a culture-filled day in the city. 🌆 #artinstitutechicago #monet #americangothic #chicagomuseum #artlovers #downtownchicago
