DK Travel : Seattle

Over the last decade, Seattle has blossomed into a bustling powerhouse of influence, steering the future of high technology as well as popular culture. The population of this vibrant metropolis is fueled by the latest in software, espresso drinks, music, and visual art that’s often as far on the leading edge as the city itself. Seattle has emerged as one of the most attractive cities in the United States, with an ever-changing skyline that reflects the pioneering spirit that brought settlers here in the mid-19th century.

Museum of Flight

The museum at Boeing Field provides insightful programs and great aerospace artifacts. Walk through a model of the Space Shuttle, tour the first Air Force One, designed for President Kennedy, climb into the cockpit of a mint-condition SR-71 Blackbird or F/A-18 Hornet fighter jet, or come see the latest addition, a Concorde.
Museum of Flight

Many children wish to fly, or fly off the handle. Either way, one way to encourage the former and stifle the latter is to take them to this museum. It also provides insightful outreach programs for school groups, families, and teachers.
Museum of Flight

Located at Boeing Field (South Seattle) and next to Interstate 5 (West side), the Museum contains not only restored aircraft but also the early workshops of the Boeing Company. There is also a restaurant and giftshop. During Summer months plane rides are also available just outside the main entrance doors which face the still functional Boeing Field runways.
Museum of History & Industry

This is a gem for anyone interested in the region’s work and workers over the last 150 years. Key features include 1.5 million online photographs, a rich catalog of oral histories, and educational programs.

Native American Roots

Archaeological records date the first inhabitants of the Seattle region to 11,000-12,000 years ago. Tribes included the Suquamish, Duwamish, Nisqually, Snoqualmie, and Muckleshoot, who, despite their harsh environment, evolved into complex societies that traded with other tribes.
Neighborhood Homes

Stroll down the 3-block stretch of Denny between Broadway and Olive Way to scout for charming Victorian and Craftsman-style homes and elegant balconies decorated with hanging flower baskets or off-beat art. Marvel at the opulent mansions on the blocks just south of Volunteer Park. Capitol Hill’s adjacent Central District, south of Madison and north of 14th Avenue East, is a transitional neighborhood but features view properties with gorgeous old homes – best seen by car.
Neighbors

Witness hedonism at its best, with talent shows, wet ‘n’ wild contests, open mike nights, CD release parties, nightly drink specials, and dancing boys. Thursdays–Saturdays the club stays open for after hours dancing.
Neptune

Built in 1921 with a nautical motif and movie-palace grandeur.
Neumo’s

The resurrected Moe’s is now Neumo’s, Capitol Hill’s most hip and happening music venue. The club is back to basics with a strong show of rock bands and DJ dance nights.
