Qype: Millennium Park in chicago

chicago - Arts & Entertainment - Landmarks - Arts & Entertainment - Parks

You walk in this downtown park and first glimpse the shining object that is the centrepiece, and think, 'what the hell is that'?!

That is 'Cloudgate', an amazing mercury-like sculpture by Anish Kapoor which will have you staring with childlike fascination (if you're anything like me) for hours.

The park is also home to a fine outdoor stage, which only this summer hosted a free gig from none other than the world's greatest living recording artist, Mr Andrew Bird. If I could give 6 stars for that, I would. Don't miss it.
