Seattle is home to the iconic Space Needle, one of the most recognizable landmarks in the United States.

The Space Needle was built for the 1962 World's Fair and has since become a symbol of Seattle. Standing at 605 feet tall, it offers stunning panoramic views of the city, Puget Sound, and nearby mountains, including Mount Rainier. Visitors can take an elevator to the observation deck, which features a rotating glass floor for an even more immersive experience. The Space Needle is a major tourist attraction, and it has also been a part of Seattle's skyline for over six decades.
