Discover a shining Emerald City that’s within easy reach of both Pacific waters and Cascade peaks. Kick off your trip in the center of the action at Pike Place Market, located in the city’s downtown district. Continuously operated since 1907, this beloved public market attracts throngs of tourists and locals alike with the wide range of local foods and wares that are always on offer.

Elsewhere in Downtown Seattle, you can catch the latest acts at one of the city’s many theaters and venues, which support a long-thriving arts scene. If you prefer your arts in a quieter venue, head to the Seattle Art Museum that’s just a block away from Pike Place Market. Home to more than 25,000 unique pieces, visitors can take in the museum’s impressive collection of local as well as global art. Art buffs who haven’t had their fill can mosey over to the nearby Frye Art Museum, another of the city’s venerable cultural institutions, which boasts a thrilling, idiosyncratic assortment of modern art.
