Travel Itinerary

If your flight arrives in Seattle before 1:00 pm local time, your tour guide will take you on a half-day tour of Seattle after you are picked up at the airport. You will go to the bustling Pike Place Market to experience the local cultural atmosphere, visit the first Starbucks, taste the authentic coffee, and finally enjoy the panoramic view of Seattle at Kelly Park, which is romantic and pleasant. (The tour lasts about 3 hours)
【Seattle】: Seattle is located in Washington State in the northwest corner of the United States. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with abundant rainfall, evergreen trees all year round, and the fragrance of cherry blossoms in spring. Mountains and plains are covered with dense, almost pristine forests. Seattle is a city full of artistic atmosphere. The elegant shape of the Space Needle is the symbol of Seattle. The world's first Starbucks is located in Pike Place Market. The Seattle International Film Festival is one of the oldest film festivals in the United States, the largest international film festival in North America, and the film event with the highest attendance rate in North America.
【Pike Place Market】: Pike Place Market opened on August 17, 1907, and has a history of more than 100 years. It is one of the oldest farmers' markets in the United States. Walking in every corner of Pike Place Market, you can see buckets of flowers, fresh pastries and fruits and vegetables, handmade cheese, local honey, wine, restaurants with international flavors, imported goods, antiques, collectibles, and a large number of unexpected goods at any time. You can get a free map and market guide at the information desk. Pike Place Market has a world-famous fish market called Pike Place Fish stall. It has become a must-see attraction for tourists.
【The First Starbucks】: The first Starbucks is located at 1912 Pike Place Market. It was built in 1971. It is an inconspicuous green store with a small storefront and an interior decoration like a warehouse, but it still attracts many tourists and Starbucks lovers. Although the Starbucks logo has been revised several times, the first Starbucks still uses the brown double-tailed mermaid pattern. The products sold in this store also carry this original trademark. It is also the only Starbucks that still uses this logo.
【Kelly Park】: Kelly Park offers panoramic views of Seattle and overlooks this romantic city. The park is one of the photo spots in downtown Seattle. If there is a foreground of the Space Needle or a background of Mount Rainier in the photos of downtown Seattle, they are usually taken here.

[Olympic National Park]: Olympic National Park, with its rich topography and ecosystem, is the largest temperate virgin rainforest in the Western Hemisphere. In order to preserve the original appearance of natural resources and maintain the lowest level of development, most of the park is still wilderness, with very limited roads and even few pedestrian paths, which greatly reduces the damage caused by humans to the natural ecology. This national park is famous for the combination of three completely different ecological environments in the entire area: the coast, mountains and rainforest, which has shaped the Olympic National Park. The extreme ground landscape is combined in one national park, making it the most worthwhile national park to visit in the northwest of the United States.

[University of Washington]: The University of Washington is a world-renowned university and one of the Public Ivy League universities. Founded in 1861, it has a 150-year history and is located in Seattle, the most livable and working city in the United States. It is also the oldest university on the Pacific coast of the United States, on par with the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Michigan.
【Space Needle】: The Space Needle is a landmark of Seattle, located in the city center. It was built for the 1962 World Expo, which attracted about 2.3 million visitors. The Space Needle is designed to withstand strong winds and earthquakes below magnitude 9. The observation deck is 159 meters above the ground. From the observation deck, you can overlook the entire Seattle. On clear days, you can also see the beautiful scenery of Mount Rainier in the south, the Cascade Mountains in the east, and the magnificent Olympic Mountains in the west. The 360° revolving restaurant "Sky City" on the top of the tower is the most popular dating spot in Seattle.
[Olympic Sculpture Park]: Olympic Sculpture Park is located in the open space between the coastal highway and the railway line. This is an era of dual prosperity in the construction and design industries. Classicism is modernized, busy roads pass through the park, and buildings are "stacked" like building blocks to form a building. Various buildings emerge in an endless stream. Some of the large sculptures placed in the park have pedestrian paths, and visitors can walk on the sculptures. In addition, the park will also exhibit non-permanent sculptures from time to time. "Time" magazine described the park as a "kinetic zone" in Seattle that combines nature and art with the city.
【Pioneer Square】: As the oldest neighborhood in Seattle, Pioneer Square is the birthplace of Seattle, and every brick and tile records the history of Seattle. The old town has become an underground city today. Pioneer Square takes you back to the old town of Seattle and shows the important role Seattle played in the gold rush era. Today, Pioneer Square is a paradise for artists. Antique shops, galleries, and street performers can be seen everywhere, which together compose the main theme of this street. Various bars are also a good place to relax.
