The Field Museum is one of the Big Three of the Museum Campus, just north of Soldier Field. The Field has been living off its mega-shows like the recent Pompeii exhibition, with King Tut on deck for a busy summer in 2006. This neoclassical building houses lots of other exhibits too, so feel free to wander around and explore but don’t get too lost or you will be locked in with some scary-looking artifacts.
