🇺🇸 72-Hour Chicago Blitz Travel Guide | 3 Days in the Windy City 🌆

❗️Recently visited the U.S. and had only 3 days in Chicago—surprisingly, it was just enough to hit the major spots! For a deeper experience, though, I’d recommend staying longer. Here’s the itinerary: 🔸 DAY 1 Landed at ORD at 5:04 AM 🛬, dropped bags at the hotel, freshened up, and started the adventure! 1️⃣ Lincoln Park Zoo First stop—a FREE zoo! 🐅 Beautiful setting, lots of animals, super relaxing. Spent 2 hours. 2️⃣ North Avenue Beach Walked 20 mins from the zoo. Sunny and breezy—perfect for photos! 📸🌊 3️⃣ Navy Pier Power-walked to the pier and rode the Ferris wheel! 🎡 4️⃣ Magnificent Mile Stopped by the world’s largest Starbucks! ☕ 5️⃣ 360 Chicago Booked the 6:30 PM slot. Saw the city in both daylight and night views—absolutely stunning! 🌇🌃 🔚 Day 1 done! 🔸 DAY 2 1️⃣ Hamburger University Went to “McDonald’s University”! 🍔 Tried int’l limited items—Japanese McFlurry was epic! Loved the area—very chill. 2️⃣ Millennium Park Checked out the Crown Fountain and Cloud Gate (The Bean)! 🤳 3️⃣ Architecture Boat Tour Departed at 6:15 PM from Michigan Ave. 🚢 Surprisingly ran into a sandstorm—clear sky turned dusty in minutes! 🌪️😵 🔚 Day 2 complete! 🔸 DAY 3 1️⃣ The Art Institute of Chicago Spent 5 hours here—mostly speed-walking 🏃💨. So many exhibits, impossible to see everything! 2️⃣ Explored Downtown Took photos at a few saved locations 📍. Legs officially gave out by evening 😂… ✅ Said goodbye the next morning. Loved Chicago ❤️—especially in May, just before summer heats up. One regret: didn’t make it to United Center 🏀. Next time—catch a Bulls game! #USATravel #ExploreAmerica #ChicagoLife #ChicagoTravel #ChicagoFood #ChicagoFun #VisitChicago
