If you're a fan of the Art Institute's secluded South Garden, you'll love the slightly more out-of-the-way Olive Park, which was also designed by landscape architect Dan Kiley. Located near Ohio Street Beach on a man-made peninsula, the park features canopying rows of honey locust trees draping over a path next to Lake Michigan, offering sweeping lake views and plenty of dappled shade. Grab a seat on one of the park's black granite benches and linger awhile, or set up your hammock in between the trees.
