Great, fresh, local food. Pike Place Market is a must-see when you visit Seattle. Plenty of shopping, vendors, and fresh produce.
The dominant materials in this Pioneer Square park are wood, concrete and water. It's like stepping into a Zen water and rock garden.The splashing water drowns out traffic noise and soothes the soul.
Located on the north shore of Lake Union, the park has excellent water views and a spectacular, unobstructed view of the city skyline. It is a popular spot for concerts.
Although the park has a beach it's not a prime spot for swimming as the water's cold & the beach rocky. One trail extends to Puget Sound & after a lengthy walk you'll find a lighthouse and tide pools.
Built for the 1962 World Expo, Space Needle distinctive structure, rising 600-plus feet above Seattle Center , has since become Seattle's most famous landmark.
The Poor Man's Space Needle ... excellent views of Seattle ... and only 304 steps to the top
