The Chain of Lakes is a district in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is one of seven districts that make up the Grand Rounds Scenic Byway, a greenspace circling through the city. The Chain of Lakes was formed in the early 20th century when the young city purchased all of the land surrounding the lakes from which Minneapolis takes its name and nickname (the "City of Lakes"), preserving the lakes as public parks.

The Chain of Lakes district consists of Lake Harriet, Lyndale Park, Lyndale Farmstead, Lake Calhoun, Lake of the Isles, Cedar Lake and Brownie Lake. It is also part of the Grand Rounds Scenic Byway.
