Called the Emerald City, Seattle sits like a guarded jewel. Practically surrounded by water and ringed by the Cascade Mountains, this city enjoys an enviable position as both a cosmopolitan centre and an outdoor paradise. Next door is the most successful high technology industry in the world, Microsoft and the wettest spot on earth, the Olympic Peninsula. All of this converges in Seattle Washington and translates into a local culture that is young, vibrant and energetic, fuelled by the caffeine jolt supplied by native barista baron, Starbucks.
The STREETWISE/eg; map of Seattle showcases the centre city and downtown area stretched along Elliott Bay.
