Lincoln Park was named for the 16th President of the United States shortly after his assassination in 1865. The park stretches along the lakeshore and contains the Lincoln Park Zoo, the Lincoln Park Conservatory and the Lincoln Park Cultural Center. The 1,188.62-acre park itself offers golf courses, baseball fields, a skate park and paths for walking, jogging or biking. Don't miss the iconic Honeycomb, a popular spot for proposals, weddings and photo-ops, and the magical Alfred Caldwell Lily Pool hidden at the north end of the zoo.
