Chicago, Illinois

This is Chicago's Cloud Gate, aka the Chicago Bean. It's hard for me to explain why I love this thing so much, but I think a large part of it is how its shape reflects the surrounding downtown Chicago skyline and its visitors. Because of its shape and location, every angle provides a different view. Visitors can also walk underneath the arched Bean and find themselves reflected on multiple surfaces. Think funhouse mirrors, but without the clowns.
