You'll discover the best places to buy regional arts and crafts; the top restaurants, from fabulous seafood joints to trendy brewpubs; the hippest coffee bars; and the best hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing in the glorious landscapes nearby. All the top city sights are here, plus side trips to the San Juan Islands; the restored Victorian town of Port Townsend; Olympic National Park; majestic Mount Rainier; Snoqualmie Falls and the Snoqualmie Valley; the Woodinville wine country; and more. Inside you'll find accommodations to suit every taste and budget, plus nightlife, a complete shopper's guide, and a host of detailed, accurate maps. You'll even get a color fold-out map, and an online directory that makes trip-planning a snap!
