Seattle is situated on the Puget Sound, approximately 100 miles from the US/Canada border. It is surrounded by mountains and water, making for easy escape into the countryside. Federal Way's viewpoints boast spectacular vistas of both Seattle and the Sound.
Seattle is famous for its cultural life, its port and its main export - technology.

And let's not forget its famous coffee houses!
With a mild climate year round, it's not surprising that the Seattle region has been named among the 'most livable' in the US. Even if you're not interested in visiting the very first Starbucks - after all, it's just a Starbucks - there are plenty of things to see and do in Seattle.
Most famous of all is the Space Needle, which gives views from 520 feet above the city. You can even dine in its rotating restaurant.
Art lovers will appreciate Seattle's many galleries and museums while music-lovers can enjoy the more local attractions of the Federal Way Symphony and Centerstage Theatre company, who perform regularly at the Federal Way Arts Centre. If you prefer to relax, both Seattle and Federal Way have abundant parks and gardens. Then there's the monorail, aquarium and plenty of shops.
Looking for a thrill? The Wild Waves and Enchanted Village theme park is nearby.
