Seattle is world famous for its picturesque skyline of the Space Needle set against downtown skyscrapers and magnificent Mount Rainier in the background. That famous vantage point can be found on Queen Anne Hill, an in-city neighborhood of grand homes with a quaint local ambiance. A multitude of family owned restaurants and stores are atop the hill, ideal for evening strolls. Nearby Magnolia is known for its manicured lots, Puget Sound bluff vistas, and the idyllic village, complete with hardware store, post office, swimming pool, and playground. Discovery Park is a naturalists wonderland with beach walks, woodlands and meadows.
