SIGHTSEEING
Because there is so much to see and do, exploring Seattle's sights is an ongoing endeavor. The Greater Seattle InfoGuide will help get you started.

Experience Music Project
EMP is a one-of-a-kind music museum combining interactive and interpretive exhibits to tell the story of the creative, innovative and rebellious expression that defines American popular music. Featuring a world-class collection of artifacts, unique architecture by Frank O. Gehry, state-of-the-art technology, exciting interactive presentations, and a dynamic ride-like attraction, EMP will encourage visitors of all ages and backgrounds to experience the power and joy of music in its many forms.

Pike Place Market
More than a one-time sightseeing destination, Pike Place Market has an indescribable energy that attracts natives and visitors alike. Multiple connected levels of the market feature an array of restaurants, specialty food shops, and novelty, antique and clothing stores.

Pioneer Square
The quaint brick buildings found here were built atop what remained of the business district after the great fire of 1889. Browsing through the district's bookstores, galleries and specialty shops can easily occupy an afternoon. At night, Pioneer Square becomes the scene for live blues, jazz, rock and comedy acts.

Safeco Field
Home to the Seattle Mariners since 1999, Safeco Field features a retractable roof for open-air seating.

Seattle Center
Developed from the facilities of the Seattle World's Fair in 1962, the Seattle Center is still a favorite for natives and visitors. Situated on a landscaped 74-acre campus in the heart of Seattle, its 10 facilities house 30 halls, Key Arena, Mercer Arena, the Opera House, the Seattle Children's Museum, and about 40 retail and food outlets. Towering over the center is the city's most famous attraction, the 605-foot Space Needle.
