The birthplace of coffee culture, moody skies, and the gateway to the Pacific Northwest wilderness.
Seattle is the Pacific Northwest's great city where tech giants' headquarters, the world's first Starbucks, Pike Place Market, and the Space Needle exist alongside dense forest, snow-capped mountains, and the Puget Sound island sea. The birthplace of grunge has evolved into one of the United States' most interesting food and culture cities.
