Consider being an annual member for a discounted/free parking and free entries to their special events, such as zoo lights in the winter. It may be cheaper in the long run if you visit as often as we do.

It's great but insanely crowded especially on weekends. Go early morning if you want any peace.
Such a massive park with tons to explore. The beaches are nice in summer. Definitely one of Chicago's best.
Free and amazing! The zoo and Lincoln Park Conservatory are must-sees. Our family goes here multiple times a month.
