Chicago, Illinois is Home to Some Pretty Epic Fountains

on

From tasty food to amazing architecture, the list of reasons to visit Chicago is pretty much endless, but some of its most stunning attractions happen to be pretty underrated. That’s the case with Chicago’s stunning fountains, and here are three you shouldn’t miss for the world during your visit.

Crown Fountain

The Millennium Park is one of Chicago’s must-see attractions, and it’s home to one of the city’s most imposing fountains. Crown Fountain isn’t just an architectural marvel, but an art piece and a love letter to the citizens of the Windy City, because some of the videos projected on the fountain feature local residents.

Buckingham Fountain

Located in the very heart of Grant Park, Buckingham Fountain is one of its most spectacular landmarks. You shouldn’t skip it during your visit because it’s one of the world’s largest fountains, and it hosts show-stopping light shows in the evenings.

Centennial Fountain

Centennial Fountain may not be as popular as the previous two, but it’s still pretty impressive in the flash. It features a tiered fountain waterfall, but it became a true sensation thanks to its water cannon, and you should stick around for long enough to see it shooting a large eighty-foot water arc across the river in person.
