Seattle Center

Seattle Center is so nice on every season of the year. Fountain is always on. You can watch it and enjoy it's music. On summer you can get in and make a picnic around it. On one side you will find restrooms and the new Climate Pledge Arena which is beautiful in the inside. If you get hungry, you can always go to the Armory's food court. There are cultural celebrations each month. They will bring traditional food from different countries and sing/dance. The Christmas Market and Great Pumpkin in October were also nice at this location. Busy so you better get tickets beforehand. Pacific Center Museum and Children Theater are other options when coming with children! But one of my favourites is the Chihully Museum. You can also get yoga classes here with an incredible view of the Space Needle :) Be sure to visit Pop Museum. Always with different and interesting expositions!! The building is just magnificent. You can look at it while going up to the Space Needle.Park at the Space Needle/MoPop Museum or over Mercer.

I love all the free Ethnic Fest. , Folklife Festival, Bite of Seattle. I also help the Seattle Cherry Blossom Festival every April.

This large area has a layout of a multifunctional park. It got many cultural and educational buildings, there's the international fountain and then of course also the space needle

We spent a lot of time in the Seattle Center, Armory, and area. We were there several time during our trip and took the monorail to and from Westlake Center (downtown) to the Seattle Center. It was home to the Seattle PrideFest and was active before and after. Space needle is located here as well as the MoPOP (Museum of Pop Culture). There are nice public restrooms located in the back of the armory if you are looking for any in the area. Recommend visiting the Seattle Center and definitely an active and good place to check out.

My family and I frequent the Seattle Center on a regular basis throughout the year for community events like attending Paw Patrol in the spring, Scooped in the summer, and most recently the Christmas Market and Winterfest. Although this area is surrounded by iconic attractions tourists flock too, there are also so many family welcoming events held for locals to enjoy. I really appreciate how attentive and courteous the staff are, they are constantly checking in with families when passing, ensuring the grounds are clean, and safe for all visitors. The public restrooms within the enclosed area are extremely well kept, clean, and monitored. There is onsite paid parking, and additional parking lots (*if you're visiting* never leave ANYTHING in your car most of the parking lots in Seattle are not monitored.) I highly recommend following the Seattle Center social media pages to keep with the rotating events held throughout the year!

Beyond fabulous! Oh, my what a place to come and spend a day with so much to see and do. The winter train and village set up will fascinate old and young alike for hours. Lots of little restaurants and free Wi-Fi..

The Seattle Center, home of the Space Needle, the Mopop Museum, Chihuly Garden and Glass and the Pacific Science Center. All that can keep you here for at least a day. The Climate Pledge Arena is also located here for events that has the capability of bringing in an enormous amount of people. Special outside events during the warmer months are held here as well. I went to Pride here a couple of times and last summer was here for the Seattle Pokémon Go Fest which entirely engulfed the Seattle Center as well as downtown with it's activities. The Seattle Center of course brings in plenty of tourists but also brings in residents of the area for those special events mainly. I feel like taking the monorail in to the Seattle Center is still best and leaving your car in a parking garage downtown. Parking around the Seattle Center is possible but you may be asking for unnecessary hassle as it is not only notorious to not find parking around the Seattle Center easily which unfortunately includes the city in general regardless of neighborhood.

Seattle Center. Site of the 1962 World Exhibition and home to the Landmarked Space Needle. It's unofficial tagline is Everything is here to experience Seattle. I can see that. So much is crammed into this area and nearby. You have Nice walkable streets, Climate Pledge Arena, McCaw Hall, Pacific Science Center, Museum of Modern Pop (MOPOP), Seattle Center Armory and much more.Seattle Center is said to reside on Indigenous land and the traditional territories Salish people. Acknowledgement of this should reminds us to try and be respectful with all people, in the search for collective healing.It really is a nice civic center for tourists and locals alike to see a multitude of attractions and or events in a relatively small area without having to move about too much. Getting there is fairly easy as it is pretty much in the center of the City. A good way to spend a few hours or more for attractions, check out Seattle Center.

The Seattle Center is such a great spot to come with friends, family and pups! They have a nice fountain surrounded by grass which families tend to hang around and let the kids play in the water on warm days. I enjoyed bringing my pup here! It's dog friendly outside. There is access to bathrooms which are nicely maintained. The Seattle armory and outside plaza often have events! The Space Needle and Glass Museum are also a short walk away (to enter they cost extra) Love the views and the atmosphere here and would highly recommend visiting!

my place to run away to when the stress of moving to a new city became too much to bear. my first safe space here. 7:17i love this place
