There are plenty of destinations in the Pacific Northwest that are culturally interesting, filled with excellent food and wine spots, and have a good, positive vibe about them. Seattle is that kind of place.
If you’ve been, you know. It’s the kind of place where you can spend your morning in a cozy neighborhood café, sipping locally roasted coffee, and pulling apart the buttery layers of a freshly-made croissant before spending your day hopping around to beautifully grown-in gardens, cool art galleries, artisanal shops, and top-notch restaurants. If you’re headed to the Emerald City and don’t know where to stay, what to eat and whether you should really go to the Space Needle, check out this ultimate list of things to do in Seattle.
