A major gateway for trade with Asia, Seattle is the fourth-largest port in North America in terms of container handling as of 2015.

In Seattle you simply can’t skip the Central Public Library – a modern architectural marvel of glass grids, unusual shapes, and a “book spiral” that climbs four stories. Stroll over to Pike Place Market to visit the original Starbucks. In the heart of the city lies Chihuly Garden and Glass, which will dazzle you with its colorful and delicate works.
