Chicago Botanical Garden

The Chicago Botanical Garden’s 385 acres are comprised of 81 acres of waterways, nine islands, and six miles of shoreline, 15 acres of prairie and 100 acres of woods. From the romantic English Walled Garden to the wild Midwestern Prairie, specialty gardens and native habitat areas show the diverse beauty of nature. During the summer, the 7,500-square-foot Model Railroad Garden features fifteen trains—including the new Rock Island line, the Santa Fe Super Chief and a Napa Valley train—that travel through miniature scenes of America’s most treasured sites including a St. Louis Riverboat, a Midwestern farm, an old-fashioned main street and the Statue of Liberty.
