Flying fish! |
86 Pike Place Pike Place Market Seattle, WA 98101 United States +1 206 682 7181 http://www.pikeplacefish.com |
Located right through the main entrance to Pike Place Market, this famous fish market makes occasional appearances in movies and on television. You can't miss the fish flying through the air. The fish and shellfish are fresh, displayed in crushed ice all around the counter. The stand sells wild salmon, yellow fin tuna, halibut, crab, prawns and more. You can have your purchase packed to take home, or the mongers will ship it anywhere. Shoppers stop to watch the fish-throwing show. Review © 2007, Wcities |

BIG screen |
Bebelplatz Waterfront Park Seattle, WA 10117 United States +1 206 622 1869 http://www.seattleimaxdome.com |
Located on Seattle's waterfront, next door to the Seattle Aquarium, this IMAX dome theater shows four films daily, but its mainstay is the Academy Award-nominated film "The Eruption of Mount St. Helens." Watching the great volcanic eruption on an 180-degree domed screen that fills your field of vision makes you feel as though you are actually there. Other featured films have depicted the Amazon River and rain forest, Alaska and the Olympic Games. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Waterfront neighborhood |
Alaskan Way From South Main Street to Denny Way Seattle, WA 98101 United States |
With numerous fun-but-tacky tourist shops and the Alaskan Way Viaduct thundering overhead, it's a wonder any natives visit here. But the views are spectacular; the Bainbridge Island ferry leaves from Colman Dock; and the popular Summer Nights at the Pier concerts play at sublime Pier 62/63. The Seattle Aquarium and the Odyssey Maritime Discovery Center are also here. The old streetcar clangs along the length of the waterfront, and the green spaces of Myrtle Edwards Park take over from the concrete mayhem at the northern end. Review © 2007, Wcities |
