Nicknamed the Emerald City due to its lush evergreen trees, Seattle's natural beauty is inspiring and unforgettable. As the largest city in the State of Washington and the hub for the Greater Puget Sound region, everywhere the focus is water and the best in urban recreation is at your fingertips.
Seattle still rocks on the reputation as the birthplace of grunge music and boasts Jimmy Hendrix and Pearl Jam as legendary music exports. Also famous for its heavy caffeine consumption and technology industry, the city is young and vibrant, and a trip to Seattle offers more opportunities to experience arts and culture than you can probably fit in - but you'll have fun trying.
