All the spring flowers are in bloom, and this place is beautiful! You can smell the narcissus, as their fragrance fills the air. A mallard bathed in the stream and looked expectantly at the people on the boardwalk; eventually some folks came with bread and the duck had his snack.

A fabulous, magnificent, and beautiful garden in the heart of downtown Chicago is worth more than any wonder which one can build. Just a small hideaway with steps away from the famous Cloud Gate, it could lead to a whole new world that anyone could hardly imagine. There was a small stream for the visitor to rest the feet and relax and float in water. Although Millennium Park is a must go place in Chicago, the hidden gem Lurie Garden is no entirely any less than that.

Well maintained gardens with gorgeous flowers. Has security and is close enough to the pavilion that you can enjoy the music without being in the crowd.

This garden is so beautiful for people to visit and take pictures. Do you know by the original design that the flower beds should contain 26,000 perennial plants in 250 varieties!

The most beautiful place in the city of Chicago. You are missing something if you have not been here.

One doesnt expect to see an authentic meadow in the middle of one of the worlds largest metropolis. At no charge. It was in full glory in late summer. The diversity was spectacular, and not lost on the many bees and butterflies collecting the abundance of floral rewards for their pollination services. At one point, I interacted with a guide, who gave me very interesting information about specific plant species. For the kids, there is an artificial stream running through the garden, and on this hot humid day, both parents and kids were sitting on the granite blocks, dipping their feet.

A brilliant urban oasis! The boardwalk and water feature, perfect for dipping ones toes in on a hot day, is truly a hidden gem. An absolute must for anyone passing through Millennium Park. Didnt want to leave after lazing away for awhile in the water, and strolled down the remaining boardwalk barefoot as my feet dried in an attempt to hold onto the moment.

The Lurie Garden is a nice spot to wander around and decompress after a show in the Pritzker Pavilion or some time in the Art Institute. It tends to be lower-key and quieter than the surrounding areas, and its not as attractive to tourists, so its a calming, beautiful little spot.

Love this part of Chicago, they have a nice stream where you can dip your feet into. Beautiful planets and flowers overlooking the skyscrapers. Right in between busy roads, but the foliage acts as sound absorbers, giving you a moment of peace and quiet in the busy city.

I would say that Lurie Garden is the hidden gem of Millennium Park. The garden is often less packed than the rest of the park and makes for a great place to take a peaceful walk. The garden is also a great way to see what the area would have looked like before the city was developed.

Along with the Pritzker pavilion and Maggie Daley park, this area has some pretty neat spaces. The Lurie garden provides a nice steering for city photos, and has provides enough seclusion for a quick lunch break or to read a book.

The best public garden in the city. A really great collection of native plants aside a boardwalk and water feature. Tends to get crowded in the summer afternoons.

Beautiful example of an urban garden with native plants and serene atmosphere with amazing (and different) skyscrapers in the background. It gets very crowded during weekends and holidays.
