Nice pictures!!What a museum!! This is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating museums to visit in The USA, the exhibits are top notch and is the only surviving buildings from 1893 Chicago’s World’s fair. There is a submarine from WWII and also there are beautiful artifacts from many countries. The museum is quite large so get there early so that you can explore it very well; there are many interesting things not only for the adults but also for kids of all ages. Everyone can enjoy a day here it really worth’s a visit.
