A Day at Pike's Market


Pike's Market in Seattle is an experience that tantilizes all of the senses. You are immediately confronted with the sounds of the fishmongers yelling and tossing huge salmon and crab putting on a show for the potential customer. A curious smell of ocean air, fish, bubbling chowder, fruits, vegetables, flowers and mini-donuts create an elixir like no other. The brilliant colors of the neatly stacked produce and bouquets of flowers dazzle the eyes. You are walking on an endless sea of etched tiles with the names of the generous contributors to the restoration of this unique treasure in the heart of Seattle.
