It not only provides a variety of local fresh vegetables, fruits and seafood, but also attracts countless artisans and street performances. 1. There are several fixed times for the fish throwing performance every day. There will be "fish throwing performances" at the seafood stalls at the entrance of the market, and there will also be impromptu performances. Those guys tossed the big fish weighing more than ten kilograms around, shouting loudly and happily, and it was very lively. 2. The first Starbucks store The first Starbucks store at 1912 Pike Place Market was built in 1971. It is the place where people who like Starbucks coffee from all over the world will definitely go to Seattle. Because Starbucks originally sold coffee beans, the store was decorated like a warehouse, and there were no tables and chairs for rest. But there are still many people who come here, prefer to stand and taste, but also order a cup of coffee here, trying to find the original taste of Starbucks coffee. 3. Chewing Gum Wall This is a rather curious attraction. It is covered with chewing gum of various colors. It is a little heavy, but you can also see many creative "works".Show Less
