Activity itinerary

Museum of Pop Culture
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
Welcome to Seattle Center! This circuit around the Space Needle will dive into that famous landmark’s history and all the other cool attractions in the area. So let’s get started! Our tour begins next to The Museum of Pop Culture. If you’re not there already, you should head there now. Note: This 0.8-mile-long tour covers the essentials of the Space Needle in 1 hour.
Space Needle
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
When Seattle was preparing for the 1962 World’s Fair, fair chairman Edward Carlson knew the city needed a centerpiece. Just a year before the fair, Carlson found a small plot of land that had once been the neighborhood’s fire department. He snatched it up and completed the construction of the Space Needle just in time for the fair!
Chihuly Garden and Glass
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket not included
On our right, hidden by the tall hedge, is Chihuly Garden and Glass. This garden features plenty of immense glass sculptures emulating the natural world. It’s all courtesy of Dale Chihuly, glass artist and Washington native. Chihuly began his college career in interior design, but once he was exposed to the art of glass, there was no turning back!
Sonic Bloom By Dan Corson
  • 10m
Those big flowers on our left are called “Sonic Bloom.” Sculpted by Dan Corson in 2013, these impressive blooms hide an equally impressive secret: They’re solar-powered! Each flower boasts photovoltaic panels which capture sunlight and turn it into energy, just like real flowers!
Pacific Science Center
  • 10m
Just ahead and to our left is the Pacific Science Center, a science and technology center built for the World Fair! During the fair, this center showcased all scientific exhibits demonstrating what a futuristic and forward-thinking city Seattle was. But it was also the site of a dramatic escape!
Neototems Children's Garden
  • 10m
Off to our left, across the grass, is the Neototems Children’s Garden. An ancient Native American legend talks of whales swimming under the earth from Lake Union's fresh water to Elliott Bay's salt water. In Native American culture, whales often represent good luck, wisdom, nurture, and power. The imagery from this legend inspired Gloria Bornstein to create this children’s garden.
Mural Amphitheatre at Seattle Center
  • 10m
To our right is the Mural Amphitheatre, where public performances are put on in front of this eye-catching mural by Paul Horiuchi.
Seattle Center
  • 10m
One of the lasting impacts of Seattle’s World Fair was making Seattle Center just as big a destination as the city’s bustling downtown. And this change didn’t just happen thanks to the new attractions that sprang up. The city center also became a heck of a lot more accessible. How? Because of the monorail!
International Fountain
  • 10m
This large domed fountain was first created for Seattle's World Fair to reflect outer space exploration. The original design featured a jagged, rocky surface meant to simulate the lunar landscape. The water jets shooting in all directions symbolized humanity’s excitement to explore the reaches of space.
Climate Pledge Arena
  • 10m
Ahead is the Climate Pledge Arena—another of the original structures from the 1962 World Fair! This arena sat right in the middle of what was called the World of Commerce and Industry zone.
Kobe Bell Meditation Garden
  • 10m
Do you see an ornate wooden structure up ahead? Keep walking toward it. That’s the Kobe Bell Meditation Garden. In the years after World War II, President Dwight Eisenhower asked municipal governments to reach out to cities in other parts of the world to foster a connection in hopes of securing a more lasting peace.
