Vue splendide sur la rivière Chicago, on se sent dans l'âme de la ville, avec les gratte-ciel qui nous entourent. Très facile d'accès car desservi par quasiment toutes les lignes du métro aérien ! À visiter absolument lors d'un passage à Chicago !

I totally accidentally ended up here on a beautiful December night. I'm glad my travels took me here. Definitely worth stopping and seeing the view, especially if you can make it on a December night. The view with all the Christmas lights was breathtaking!

I remember my first visit down the Magnificent Mile like it was yesterday. At the time I just so happened to be a tourist in Chicago, visiting family in central Illinois. During that visit, it was like zero-dark-thirty in the morning and I was headed towards a car rental place at one of the hotels. Years later I became a resident of Chicago and my visits turned into bike rides to escape my neighborhood, plus to visit sites like John Hancock Tower and Fourth Presbyterian Church.

I view the Mag Mile as my gateway to-and-from the inner city. And I tend to be very bold and in the mood to people watch while cycling down this strip because it is congested with tourists and impatient drivers who just want to get to their destination resulting in relentless behaviors.

If you want to shop at well-known shopping outlets like Under Armour, Nike, Saks Fifth Avenue, H&M, Zara, plus visit known sites like John Hancock Tower and Water Tower. Why visit elsewhere when you have everything all in the Streeterville, River North, Gold Coast area. In my honest opinion, the best time to visit the Mag Mile is during the holiday season because it is beautiful with flashy lights along the strip which adds to its iconic architecture. Plus everyone visiting the city being in the holiday spirit, which may make you fall in love with the city even more.

I recommend using the cities transportation system (CTA Train, Bus, Cab, Uber, Lyft, etc) if you are staying outside of the Mag Mile sector. Doing so will keep you relieved of having to deal with impatient drivers and expensive, overcrowded parking lots and garages. Keep that in mind and I hope this review assists you in any way.

It's a beautiful iconic street in Chicago. Highly recommended visit, definitely worth it walking there: many shops, restaurants and a wonderful view of all the buildings and the river. Great for sightseeing!

Lots of fun walking the mile. So many shops and a wonderful view of all the huge buildings. Definitely a spot to stop if you're sight seeing.
