Laid out by the famed landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted for the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, Jackson Park, along with its Museum of Science & Industry, is among the few developments still remaining from that World’s Fair. The Southside park includes a Japanese garden with waterfalls, colorful lanterns, and a bird sanctuary on an island in a peaceful lagoon.
