For history buffs, the Field Museum offers a great opportunity to explore the natural history of the U.S. as well as the Midwest. Its history dates back to the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago, which saw the invention of the Ferris wheel. The Field Museum became the home of the many collections from the exposition, like anthropological artifacts and geological specimens. Today the museum may be best known for its famous dinosaur SUE, the biggest and most complete Tyrannosaurus rex ever discovered, as well as displays of Egyptian mummies and the man-eating lions of Tsavo.
