Absolute must-see! It's like the city's glittering, liquid jewel, especially when it's all lit up at night. The riverwalk is a cool place to stroll, grab a bite, and enjoy the city vibes. And if you get the chance, take a boat tour – you'll get the lowdown on Chicago's fascinating history and some killer skyline views. Trust me, it's one of those iconic things you gotta check off your Chicago bucket list!

The Chicago River is placid and stately as it moves along and reflects both modern and historic architecture in the Loop area of the city. Tour boats ply its waters up to Lake Michigan near Navy Pier. The waters, alternatively blue and green, are clear and clean looking. The numerous bridges that cross the river are often double decked and are themselves part of the river's history. Watching the smooth waters makes for a restful experience.

The Chicago River cuts through downtown Chicago and offers a great way to experience the city's incredible architecture. There are architecture boat tours that can be experienced and are very relaxing and worthwhile during the pleasant weather times of the year. Or you can stroll along the Chicago Riverwalk on the south bank of the river and experience many incredible views. Some of the best views are near the Michigan Avenue Bridge where the iconic Wrigley Building and Tribune Tower can be seen.

The first of my travel is St. Patrick’s Day and the coast of river is so crowded. The people was fun and dancing. Besides, the most beautiful thing is that the river was colored brilliant green by natural feed. The tours on the river can be taken and see more details about these lovely river.

One of the best and most admired attractions in downtown Chicago is Chicago River, that divides this part of the city into two large areas -- Chicago Loop and Near North Side. Chicago River is a stunning result of two vanguard engineering projects in the past: in 1889 - 1910 the flow of Chicago River was redirected, reversing it, making it flow out of Lake Michigan, and flow into Des Plaines River -- 156 miles away from Chicago. Chicago River is always beautiful, and in summer, especially on weekends, the River is getting very busy with the river traffic: kayaks, rental boats, water taxis, tour boats, etc. The views from Chicago River banks, from Chicago Riverwalk, multiple bridges, and river boats are spectacular. Riverboat architecture cruises are very popular with Chicagoans and visitors, who can fully enjoy the contemporary city architecture and its historic architectural heritage, as well. There are famous iconic sites and buildings along Chicago River (Tribune Tower, Wrigley Building, Marina City Towers, Merchandise Mart), many restaurants and modern, upscale hotels. Chicago River is undoubtedly an exciting part of town, making this gorgeous city look even more vibrant and beautiful. Enjoy!
