For an authentic taste of Pacific Northwest culture, make your way to Seattle. The city is filled with attractions and activities that will capture your interest. For example, you’ll enjoy the Puget Sound Aquarium, which features floor-to-ceiling displays of marine life. During rainy seasons, you can immerse yourself in the world of aquatic creatures by touching the tide pools. The Aquarium also features colorful tropical fish tanks, manned by patient volunteers who are always on the lookout for curious visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For something a little less touristy, you can always take a stroll through the nearby Rainier National Park. Located nearby, the park is a great place for a day hike or a family picnic. There are more than 50 chocolatiers in the area. If you have some time, try the 3-day gourmet kayak expedition, which sounds fantastic but runs infrequently. Seattle is also known for its coffee, so try the local specialty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another attraction in Seattle is the “underground” – the city’s iconic 48-foot kinetic sculpture, the Fremont Troll. The iconic sculpture guards the downtown branch of Seattle’s largest art museum, the Seattle Art Museum (SAM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re visiting the city during peak season, you’ll need to plan your trip around Pike Place Market. Be prepared for a long day of walking, so be prepared to wear comfortable shoes and layers. Pack a daypack with snacks and water, as the weather can change quickly. If you’re traveling with small children, consider hiring a private guide to give you an insider’s view of the market. You can also rent electric carts, strollers, and wheelchairs for those who need help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the ultimate in Seattle entertainment, visit the Museum of Pop Culture, which is adjacent to the Space Needle. Whether it’s rainy or sunny, the aquarium is a must-visit. Whether you’re looking for the newest superstars, the museum showcases a wide array of entertainment. It is an unforgettable downtown experience. With so many museums, it’s easy to see what’s going on in Seattle. This city has something for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a great view of Seattle’s cityscape, head to the Space Needle. The iconic structure of the city is atop the tower, and a trip to its top observation deck is an excellent way to take in the view. You’ll be awestruck by the city’s skyline. And as a final reminder, don’t miss Seattle’s most famous landmark, the Space Needle. There you can ride the elevator and take in 360-degree views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another must-visit destination is the Chihuly Garden and Glass, which is located in downtown Seattle. Known for its sculptural works, Chihuly’s exhibition at the Seattle Center is well worth the visit. Visitors can marvel at the work of this innovative glassblower, who is a native of Tacoma. His work transforms sunlight into a beautiful medium. And you’ll be entranced by the stunning glasswork that changes colors with the passing of the sun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
