Tour

Take a pleasant walk through Chicago’s beautiful Lincoln Park—a former lakeside cemetery turned recreation destination. Hear about the park’s history, learn the stories behind famous sculptures and enjoy a stroll through the park’s beloved zoo!
The tour begins on the south end of the park, on the northeast corner of Clark Street and North Boulevard, near the Children’s Fountain (84 W. North Blvd). Paid street parking south of the park is limited. A paid parking lot is located one block north at 1730 N. Stockton Dr. Public transportation is recommended.
The route zigzags through the park, highlighting statues, fountains, gardens and beautiful works of architecture like Café Brauer and the Lincoln Park Conservatory. It concludes at the William Shakespeare statue near Stockton Drive and Belden Avenue.
