It seems like a place where you can see the Chicago River and buildings beautifully. It takes a long time to tilt and you have to pay separately. The cloud bar is an open space, so there is nothing special, but it is good to have a drink at the cafe. You can get a free drink if you show the voucher, but they ask for your passport for alcohol.

If you are not physically fit, I recommend you look at famous works in the beginning. There are so many famous paintings such as Monet, Gogh, and Picasso. There are many chairs in the middle, so open the door and go in and take a rest. If you go to the basement of the cafe, they sell delicious food, so take a rest while eating, and then close the door and come out. I personally like the Buncheong ware in the Korean pavilion the best.

The tickets are easy to use. If you have a bag, you can leave it at the front desk. There are many works on display. It is recommended that if you are interested in art and cultural relics, you can spend about five hours.

Tickets are very convenient to make reservations. It is recommended to buy if you want to go to multiple attractions. We chose the building cruise and the museum and had successful reservations.

Be sure to allocate at least three hours of time. The collection is rich and there are many famous masterpieces. It is very enjoyable to read! There is free storage next to the ticket office. In winter, be sure to store all your coats, coats, scarves, hats and gloves, so you can browse the museum easily and comfortably!

It was raining and we had to seat on the lower floor but still could see all the buiding along the river. We were late for the cruise that we booked but they helped us to change to another time for free
