O atrakciji

Brze činjenice: Zavirite u kožu od nerđajućeg čelika bez šavova napravljenu od 168 zavarenih ploča, posmatrajte kako se horizont i gomila tope u izobličene, sanjive odraze. Više od 2 miliona ljudi poseti svake godine da bi poziralo ispod glatke, konkavne donje strane zvane omfalos, pretvarajući snimke u razigrane panorame.

Istaknuto: Zrcalna površina Anisha Kapoora ne samo da odbija svetlost, već i guta zvuk tako da stajanje ispod trbuha proizvodi izobličene odjeke i šuplji zujanje koje možete osetiti u grudima. Inženjeri su zavarili 168 ploča u monolit od 110 kratkih tona, a konkavni omfalos može odraziti gomilu od 50 ljudi u jednom svetlucavom ribljem oku koje sabija desetine lica u jedan selfi.

Insajderski saveti

Arrive 30-45 minutes before sunrise on weekdays to avoid crowds and get mirror-smooth reflections.
Stand under the central arch for immersive curved reflections, or back up to North or South of the plaza for full-skyline compositions.
Use a telephoto lens to isolate skyline details and minimize people, or shoot wide from close up for fun distorted selfies.
Check Millennium Park's events calendar before you go, because concerts or festivals can close parts of the plaza and increase crowds.
