What
distinguishes this city from the rest is its friendly vibe and
charming laid back demeanour, which complete with its elaborate
nightlife scene, myriad attractions and vast cuisine makes Seattle a
one of a kind destination in the world. While the place, with its
plethora of offerings, is a true delight to visit year around, there
are certain places in Seattle that are best visited in spring. Here
we have accumulated a list of attractions that we deem to be a must
visit in spring during your Seattle
tours.
Check them out!
1)
Discovery Park
One
of the best places to visit in spring, Discovery Park is packed with
plenty of scenic views and a charming surrounding that lures nature
lovers and recluse from all over the world. While there is no
particular attraction to visit here, you can spend all your time
walking along its coast, feeling the salty fresh air on your face and
admiring as the waves come roaring to life. If not, take your
favourite cocktail drink for a thorough indulgence. Being on the
coastal side, it is accessible year around, but a detour in spring is
certainly more engaging, given the weather is at its fine and
tourists are comparatively less.
2)
The Seattle Arboretum
A
whiff of fresh air amid the hubbub of the concrete world, the park
has established itself as a popular attraction among visitors and is
a must-do on all Seattle
sightseeing tours.
With lush green surrounding, backed by serene vibes and a well
maintained botanical garden, the Seattle Arboretum comes as a winner
among all. But what lands it on this list the first place is its
specific Japanese Garden which literally comes alive in spring when
the beautiful spread of cherry blossoms sees their full bloom. The
koi pond and bonsai plants only add to it. Come here and spend some
time relishing its beauty while feeling your stress disappear.
3)
The WAC
Spring
is the season of cherry blossoms and if there is one place in Seattle
to view it in their full bloom, apart from the arboretum, of course,
it is WAC. The scenic beauty of this area in truly unmatchable. Pass
through The Quad and you will know. A great place to take a nice
leisurely stroll and spend some time in. If you are coming with
family, even better! A visit to the WAC is considered to be one of
the best tours in Seattle.
4)
The Center For Wooden Boats
What
started 25 years ago has today become one of the fun spring events in
the city. Every Sunday a crew of adventure enthusiasts take the
locals on a fun rendering water ride on spirit boats and schooners.
If you are lucky, your visit to this place can even be accompanied by
a yacht. Regardless, whatever you ride through, the surrounding views
remains just as breathtaking and alluring. The Seattle skyline views
can be quite intimidating, yet worth watching at least once in your
lifetime.
5)
Smith Tower
We
all have heard about the Space Needle but what about this? Quite
underrated, the towering Smith Tower is no less than the Space Needle
when it comes to having the best views in the city. More popular
among localities, the towering building provides equally engaging
views and is quite frequented among natives as well. Walk around the
premises and admire its gigantic structure, hike up to the top and
spend some time there and finally once you are done seeing it all, go
for a nice meal in the nearby cafes around.
