Cool things to do in the city
One of my favorite places to take guests. Take a ride in a state-of-the-art "flying theater" that will transport you on an aerial adventure above one of America's most scenic and beautiful states, Washington.
You will see amazing sights and experience the smells of Washington as you dive down the seaside cliffs through the morning mists of the Olympic National Forest and Mt. Rainier to the San Juan Islands and on to the spectacular beauty of the Cascades and the awe-inspiring Snoqualmie Falls to the wild whitewater of the Tieton River and the kaleidoscopic wonder of the Walla Walla Valley Balloon Stampede then back to Elliot Bay to bank around the Seattle Great Wheel as a sensational fireworks display begins and then slowly landing back to where the journey all began.

Not worth it to go out of your way but if you're close by, it's a fun spot to take a picture. Rumor has it it was made to attract tourist and scare the homeless population away. Also, really close to Cafe Turko which is a great Turkish restaurant!

Another place that may not be worth it if it's out of your way. However, definitely worth a short detour for a quick picture. You get the most amazing view of the needle and city in the background!
