Welcome to Chicago!

EarthCam welcomes you to Chicago - The Windy City! Located at the Field Museum of Natural History, this camera offers many views of the Chicago skyline, Lake Shore Drive, the Museum Campus and the beautiful shore of Lake Michigan. Locate the Sears Tower - the tallest building in the United States - among the other architectural glories and gleaming towers of downtown!

Chicago is famous for deep dish pizza, Wrigley Field, the legendary Chicago Bulls, Cubs, and White Sox. Chicago is the Midwest's capital, on equal footing with New York or Los Angeles. The city is host to Taste of Chicago, the world's largest food festival, and is where Cracker Jacks, pinball games, and roller skates were introduced to America.

Chicago is on Lake Michigan, which has 26 miles of beaches, trails, and boardwalks. In the "Windy City" temperatures range from minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit in winter to more than 100 in summer.
