Pike Place Market

After 101 years, Pike Place Market is still an integral part of Seattle, a bustling and festive labyrinth of tourists vying for photos of flying fish, street performers and downtown shoppers and in the heart of the city, the market houses some of the region's best restaurants and hidden treasures. In-the-know locals also hustle to Organic Wednesdays and Summer Sundays, when real farmers are on hand to answer questions and hawk their goods.
