Normally a cemetery would not be a stop on a city tour. This, however, is the Graceland Cemetery and Arboretum.  It is the last resting place of many famous Chicagoans, as well as quite a beautiful space.  People run and ride bikes through the park, as well as other activities, that don’t make it feel like a cemetery.  Worth taking some pictures, especially the Palmer Monument.
