Just a short 15-minute drive from the Art Institute is the Field Museum that houses the biological and anthropological collections that were put together for the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. Here, you can see everything from ancient mummies to dinosaur skeletons and rare jewels.

Beautiful Views
