The Willis Tower, formerly known as the Sears Tower, is a high point in the Chicago skyline. The building is currently used as an office building with a total of 110 floors. Tens of thousands of tourists come here every day just to board the 412-meter-high 103-story Chicago Sky Observation Deck to overlook the entire Chicago panorama. 1.103rd floor observation deck, enjoy the city view of Chicago. As soon as you enter the Willis Tower, you will be attracted by the words "Windy City", "Chicago" and "Chicago City" written in English on the wall. Then step into the elevator, and each floor the elevator goes up will display the current floor, the current height, and the buildings with the same height. For example, the 25th floor: the Statue of Liberty in New York, the 86th floor: the Eiffel Tower in Paris, and the 102nd floor: the Empire State Building in New York. When you get out of the elevator to the observation deck on the 103rd floor, you can overlook the entire Chicago city and the skyline across Lake Michigan. 2. A real sense of suspension, a thrilling and exciting experience When you come here, you must not miss the thrilling feeling of standing on the glass roof. In June 2009, the designer added 4 glass roofs, all of which were built on the west side of the building, extending about 1.2 meters to the interior. Standing on the transparent glass balcony, the city street view is unobstructed, but it is frightening. And you can also see the tourists on the rooftop next to it, and it feels like they are hanging in the air. Of course there are people standing on it, some people are squatting on the glass, and some people are even lying on it. 3. The sky is clear in the daytime, and the neon lights are bright at night. During the day, you can feel the openness of the mountains and small mountains. At night, you can overlook the brightly lit night scene of Chicago. It is recommended to arrive at the observation deck 30-45 minutes before sunset, so that you can see the beauty of the alternating day and night.United States · Chicago

Standing on the glass balcony of the Willis Tower made my legs go weak. The cars below looked like ants, and the lake was a deep, endless blue. An older man was too afraid to step on it, so he squatted down and reached out to touch the glass, while a child next to him jumped around. Clouds drifted past the building, their shadows slowly moving across the city wall. When the elevator came down, my ears were ringing, and there was a long line in front of the ice cream stand outside.

Worried about not being able to buy tickets, I bought them online, only to find out later that buying them on-site was cheaper. The scenery here is first-rate, definitely worth the trip. There are some decorations before the elevator, perfect for taking photos 📸, which is quite interesting. Many people arrive before dusk to see both the daytime and nighttime views. Each group has a 2-minute photo time limit; you can queue again if you want to take more photos after that.

The sightseeing cruise allows you to appreciate the peninsula style and scenery of Chicago. There are more tourists at night. The cruise ship here is also quite spacious. You can walk freely here. The sailing time is about half an hour. The whole trip is very gratifying.
