The first Ohio governors arrived in 1851 to greet the Indians who had lived there for 6,000 years, and named the developed area Indian Chief Seath, the source of Seattle's name. Today, the Pioneer Square, which is at the junction of First Street and Yesler Street, retains the 19th-century gold rush and booming streetscape: the iconic Victorian buildings are full of antique flavors; the mixed-material waiting booths cast for the 1909 Trolley Street car; Elegant iron cast patterning and high street lamps; none of these are standard Victorian styles.
Seattle Travel - Pioneer Square, which is said to be the birthplace of the entire city, where you can learn about the past and present of the entire city. A historic fire destroyed half of Seattle 130 years ago, when the mayor of Seattle decided to bury all the buildings below the second floor, resurface and then re-build, so there is now Seattle and the very famous Seattle underground city. The Xianmin Square is the only entrance to the underground city. The Xianmin Square is full of artistic atmosphere, with ancient buildings and modern graffiti. You can also understand the people's livelihood while feeling the art here. Why not? This is not just the square, but the new beginning for the whole of Seattle.
Very close to the accommodation, so on the first day of Seattle, there is nothing to do with the accommodation, go there. Of course, although the name is "square", it is still different from the square in our Chinese concept, just a small block. Pioneer Square is a long history, and the founders of Seattle were stationed here in 1952. The statue of the Seattle Chief can be found on the square, but the original name Seattle, Seattle, is the result of a misinformation. Come here to visit the Occidental Square next to it, the style is similar. But the time we arrived was close to the evening, and it was when the tramp began to get active. Unfortunately, the nearby CenturyLink Field just finished a football game, and the crazy fans rushed here to celebrate. Scared tramps and almost mad fans make us feel that it is better to stay here less.
Walking here when you have time is a good choice!
