Seattle with Kids—

Super Fun 3-Day Weekend Itinerary (旅程)

Day 1

Pike Place Market

Start your Seattle tour by exploring one of the city’s best-loved spots: Pike Place Market. As one of the oldest farmers markets in the U.S. that has been operating all the time, it offers everything from organic fruits and vegetables to specialty cheeses, jams and bread. You’ll also find handmade gifts and shops selling anything from antiques (古董) to magic tricks.

Seattle Waterfront

The Seattle Waterfront is a wonderful place to spend the day. Whether you’re looking to enjoy a fresh seafood dinner or just enjoy the views, it can all be found along the Seattle Waterfront. The Seattle Waterfront makes up the west border of the city. Pike Place Market sits just above the waterfront and it can be easily reached by a set of stairs. The best way to see the sights and shops on the waterfront is to walk along it!

Day 2

Madison Park

Drive to Madison Park to explore the Arboretum and Japanese Garden. Kids will love the chance to run along the garden paths, searching for turtles in this 3.5-acre park. Be sure to pick up fish food at the entrance gate.

Woodland Park Zoo

Next, head to one of Seattle’s best spots, the Woodland Park Zoo. Along with zoo classics like lions, gorillas and elephants, kids will love the Family Farm and petting zoo. The outdoor Habitat Discovery Loop is always a hit.

Day 3

Gasworks Park

Finish up your Seattle site-seeing with a visit to Gasworks Park. On the site of the former Seattle Gas Light Company, Gasworks is a large public park.
