THINGS TO DO
IN SEATTLE
SPACE NEEDLE
Built for the 1962 World’s Fair, the 605-foot-tall Space Needle quickly became an icon of the city recognized far and wide today. On the observation level, which you can reach via a 43-second elevator ride, see the doodle-on-a-napkin concept that led to the Space Needle design.

PIKE PLACE MARKET
From the iconic market sign and Rachel the Piggy Bank to the gum wall, the original Starbucks cafe, well over 225 local artisans selling their wares, the famous fish-tossing tradition, and music-playing street performers, there are enough sights and sounds at Pike Place Market to pack a day (or more).
