Things To Do
Space Needle
While undoubtedly a Seattle staple, we only recommend going up to the top if it's a very clear day (unless you want to see our infamous fog up close and personal). If the weather is less than ideal, there are several other sights to see in the area so you can still check it out from the ground (and for free).
Chihuly Garden and Glass
Located in Seattle Center right next to the Space Needle. We highly recommend visiting during the day, grabbing a stamp on your ticket or wrist, and going back when it's dark to see the garden lit up.
Museum of Pop Culture
Head to this awesome museum to find Nirvana...plus Pearl Jam, Jimi Hendrix, Prince, and more.
Pike Place Market
Rain or shine, the market is a true Seattle landmark. Make sure to snag all the free samples as you wander!
Post Alley
Alongside Pike Place, Post Alley has a variety of restaurants and shops to peruse.
Olympic Sculpture Park
Free! And full of sculptures and great views of the Puget Sound (and outside).
Capitol Hill
Arguably Seattle’s coolest neighborhood (at least according to VisitSeattle.org), Capitol Hill offers bars, brunch spots, nightlife, and all manner of oddities. Great for eating, drinking, and wandering!
Ballard
Ballard is where we live! According to VisitSeattle.org, Ballard is where "historic meets hip...where Nordic and maritime roots run deep and trendy shops, restaurants, and bars thrive." Great for eating, drinking, wandering and an entire district dedicated to local breweries.
Reuben's Brews - The Taproom
Nadav's favorite brewery. By far.
Ballard (Hiram M. Chittenden) Locks
Take a stroll through the gardens, view migrating salmon, and watch boats big and small slip through the locks!
Majestic Bay Theatres
Janky movie theater that accepted MoviePass. In case you want to relive the awkardness of our first date.
Fremont
Fremont is the center of the universe. At least according to the sign in the middle. Home to the Fremont Troll and the annual Solstice parade, quirk is the name of the game. Good for eating, drinking, and wandering!
Gas Works Park
A picturesque urban greenspace with great views of Downtown Seattle and the hulking, rusty (and very artsy) remains of the Seattle Gas Light Company gasification plant.
University District
As the name implies, this is the main campus of the University of Washington (not to be confused with the REAL UW). If you're looking to wander, the UDistrict has a delightful mix of nature, moderately sketchy but delicious food, and coffee shops (obviously).
Discovery Park
Craving a true PNW hike but don't have time to leave the city? Discovery Park's sprawling 500+ acres of greenery (and blackberries) is the place to go!
University Village - Outdoor Mall
Outdoor mall located near our wedding venue and the Silver Cloud Hotel (with a very cool new-ish Apple store).
