This futuristic tower began as a sketch on a napkin. Designed by Edward E. Carlson, the Space Needle was made to be a part of the World's Fair in 1962, which was held under the theme "21st Century." The 605-feet-tower was constructed to be strong enough to hold out against wind power that clocks up to 200 miles per hour.

The Gum Wall is literally a gum wall. It began in the 1990s when patrons were asked to leave their chewing gum before entering the Market Theatre; the gum ended up getting stuck on the unofficial gum wall and was even taken off a few times until officials realised the wall had turned into an attraction. Hence, the birth of the Market Theatre Gum Wall. Located at the back of Pike Place Market on Post Alley, the wall is now coated in a very thick layer of gum.

Don't miss out on this huge experience because Seattle has over 3,000 plus restaurants. And it definitely is a foodie mecca. If you choose a centrally located Seattle hotel, club hopping and whetting your appetite on a variety of yummy dishes will not be a problem.
