Chicago is a gardener’s city. As residents, we are fortunate enough to enjoy gardens wherever we look, from little green patches throughout the city to world-class landmarks, like Millennium Park.

Here are a few of our favorite places – whether we are hosting out-of-town guests or just want to be a tourist in our own city.
