DOWNTOWN. It could be argued quite persuasively that Pike Place Market is Seattle's heartbeat. Situated along the water, the market was originally founded to allow produce growers to sell directly to consumers. Today, it's a protected historic district that inundates you with sights, sounds, smells, and the best people-watching in town. Whether in suits or tie-dyed t-shirts, wearing boutonnieres or strewn with wildflowers, people of all persuasions find the market a fabulous place to spend the day. The Market Foundation offers fun and informational tours Wednesdays to Saturdays, starting at the Market Heritage Center at 1531 Western Avenue. (© 10Best) Started in 1907 in response to high vegetable costs, Pike Place has become a world unto itself, covering 9 acres of downtown Seattle and drawing 10 million visitors a year. Don't miss the fish being hurled from worker to worker. (from Sunset) Top Products for Pike Place MarketBuy your tickets now and save ... before you go!
