Visit to the Space Needle

- Category: June 2007
June 4th, 2007 - The Space Needle is a tower in Seattle and is a major landmark of the Pacific Northwest and is a symbol of Seattle. The Space Needle was constructed in 1962 and is about 605 ft tall. My uncle livs very close to the Needle and so we went there today in the evening to see the sunset. We parked a couple of blocks away and walked to the Needle. Since it was a week day and also relatively late, there was no crowd at all. We bought our tickets and then went to the elavator. |
The elevator takes us to the Observation Deck which is at a height of 520 ft. From there we were able to get a 360degree view of Seattle, its surrounding mountains, water bodies. It was rather cold and windy but I had a great time there. We took lots of pictures. When my parents let me down, I ran all over the observation deck. We finally returned home a little before sunset.
