Trip Moments Recommendations
Seattle Space Needle
The most Iconic landmark, also a symbolic structure in seattle, 605-ft.-tall spire at the Seattle Center, with an observation deck & a rotating restaurant.
Do make sure you plan your activities at the space needle as there are several things to do. From photo-taking, skyhigh selfie, lounge or even walk the skyrisers. Entrance fee to the space needle cost from 25USD to 38USD depending on the day and time you go. As this is a popular attraction, there might be a long queue at times, especially closer to sunset. Part of the space needle floor is made up of tilting glass benches leaning out to the city and also a glass floor for you daring people to step on it and look all the way down to the bottom.
As the space needle was built in 1961, there is a long history of the tower, where it was once a radio tower, it also withstand an earthquake of 9.2 magnitude, it was also once a restaurant. The space needle has stopped rotating since the earthquake, i believe a safety concern.
BUt there is much to see and do up the space needle. Spend sometime up there, get a coffee, have some food and absorb the view from the above. You can see the entire 360 of Seattle up from the tower. Oh and also, do get a jacket as it could get really chilly and windy up there as well.

Alki Beach overlooking Seattle Skyline
Alki Beach is a popular place for couples or visitors to catch the entire downtown seattle. Be it in daylight or sunset or even the night lights.
Beautiful long stretch beaches with parks and running treks for people who wants to end their evening with a nice run or stroll.
Alki Beach stretches for approx 4km which definitely will get you an awesome skyline view of seattle.
Location(getting there):
West seattle juts out into Elliot Bay directly West of downtown Seattle. This can be easily reached by car via the West Seattle Bridge. From Downtown Seattle, follow the signs and find your way to I5 South and take the exit for West Seattle. Once across the bridge, turn right onto Harbor Ave SQ and this will lead you around the tip of Duwamish Head and onto Alki Point.
There are also alot of cafe's by Alki beach which is just across the road overlooking the view of Seattle Skyline. And there is also a replica of the statue of liberty which reminds people that it was once called New York - Alki.
Most people like myself, get takeouts and seat by the carpark and just absorb the views, letting the sunset slowly set and the Space Needle and skyline slowly lights up. It is breathtaking.
