Pike Place Market is a bustling, colorful market on the Seattle waterfront that has been open since 1907. It is packed with fruit stands, flower stalls, craft tables, and tasty food.
It is best known for the fishmongers who toss huge fish through the air to each other and the crowd. Kids also love the silly gum wall and the original first Starbucks coffee shop nearby.
At the fish stand workers shout and throw big salmon across the counter to each other. A crowd always gathers to watch and cheer when a fish sails through the air.
Long rows of tables overflow with fresh flowers, shiny apples, and handmade crafts. Farmers and artists sell what they grow and make, so no two visits look the same.
Explore the lower floors to find funny little shops, a magic store, and Rachel the bronze piggy bank. The market is a maze that is fun to get happily lost in.
