Seattle’s Fall Colors Are a Must-See This Year
The city is one of the most Instagrammed autumn destinations worldwide
By Sarah Stackhouse November 4, 2024
UK-based travel agency Travelbag pulled together Instagram hashtag data. Not surprisingly, New York (#fallinnewyork) and Chicago (#fallinchicago) took first and second, but Seattle slid into fifth, trailing Melbourne (#autumninmelbourne) and Seoul (#autumninseoul). We even beat out Boston and Tokyo.
Every day, everywhere, I’m pointing it out to anyone who’ll listen: It’s so beautiful right now! Golden hour, just before sunset, is when the red, orange, and yellow trees really glow. Yesterday, walking down Fremont Avenue past Power House, I saw all those bright red trees lined up. And across the water, the north side of Queen Anne Hill looks so pretty. What’s your favorite Seattle spot right now? Share it with us on Instagram, and don’t forget to tag it.
