In the heart of the Pacific Northwest, Seattle is known as the emerald city. Having bred both grunge music and Starbucks Coffee, Seattle blends nature, art, and innovation; there’s truly something for everyone.
Seattle is infamous for its ever-constant rain, and some travelers are deterred by this prospect. While I personally love the rain (I mean, Washington is called the evergreen state for a reason), I can understand how it discourages sightseeing.
The easiest way to get to Seattle is by plane. The Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is 17.7 km (11 miles) from downtown, but the airport is fairly easy to access through train, taxi, and Uber.
