Fremont

Seattle

Hip and eclectic, Fremont is always a fun place to go. The sign saying "Welcome to the Center of the Universe" is the first clue you've arrived. Oddities like a car-eating troll, a smoking rocket and a bronzed Vladimir Lenin statue (purchased for $150,000) will leave you laughing. The Saturday gallery walks and the Fremont Sunday Market will have you browsing, and El Camino or Seattle Catch will fill you up. Say hello to the group waiting for a bus, but don't expect an answer--they're life-sized statues, often dressed in celebration of someone's birthday or another grand event. Need a guitar string or an art-quality mandolin? Descend the stairs to Dusty Strings.
