SEATTLE
INFORMATION |
 |
Over the years this city on the Pacific
north west coast has become the home to Bill Gates, Microsoft,
Starbucks and been the one place Frazier chose after downing his
last in Boston. Built, like Rome, on seven hills, Seattle has grown
into a sprawling city ever since grunge rock made the place cool
back in the late 80s. But for once the architecture is stunning and
whoever was responsible for the town planning deserves a drink in a
bar of their choice. It's easy to get around in this young and hip
town, the heritage has been lovingly cared for and there's room to
breathe and relax amongst all the leafy parks and modern museums.
Lots of culture and there's a well-established nightlife too – and
you'll put on a stone in a week from all the places to eat.
