Standing on top of the Space Needle
by abhijits
The Space Needle is definitely one place where you have to be ...you can see for mile and miles of the landscape and of course the city of Seattle.I had the good fortune of catching a sunset from the top of the Needle and WOW what a sight. I miss the Greenery ...because in Cyprus all we have is sand and no green but well you just seem so much of green around here ...it makes you feel more alive believe it or not
Visit Pike Place Market, ride...

Visit Pike Place Market, ride up the Space Needle, take a ferry ride anywhere but if time allows through the San Juan Islands...Friday Harbor is a good start. Eat at any Anthony's HomePort Restaurants or FX McRory's. The trees, mountains, & water everywhere!
Seafair
by annk
Seafair is an annual summer event that started in 1950 and is now the largest festival in the Pacific Northwest. We didn't attend but had a great view of the navy ships cruising by which was part of the "Fleet Arrival." On some ships, thousand of sailors would stand around the perimeter of the outside deck in their white uniforms during arrival into port.

Quiet Fanatic
by BlackCatRoad
No matter your personal taste in music Seattle is your town. My suggestion is to be a "quiet fanatic" when it comes to the more "well known" or shall I say infamous musical acts coming from Seattle and the Northwest region of the country. Being a tourist and just having to tell someone "Kurt changed my life," is rather hard to hear for people who actually lived it, who actually had a life, a city, and community change because of any one of the spiritually gifted musicians this city consistently produces. Unless of course you have bonded with a fellow traveler(s) and are sharing stories, then to your pleasant surprise, a round of drinks may be sent to your table by a weathered yet distinguished man tipping his mug in salute at the common bond.
