All museums in Seattle are free on the first Thursday of every month.

Seattle has a very large Asian population with lots of foods and clothing that you will not find elsewhere.
You can take trips to Underground Seattle. Where the city was located before the big Seattle fire.
The locks in Ballard are not only interesting, but free. You can see boats go from fresh to salt water. At certain times of the year you can see salmon returning from the ocean to spawn in the fresh water. The fish ladder as well as the locks are free.

Pike Place Market.,
Chinatown.
Alki Beach.
University of Washington campus with its libraries.
The many live theater in Seattle. (You can get half price tickets at the Pike Place Market at Ticket, Ticket)
Seattle , Food:
10/10
Between Salty's Brunch on Alki beach to dinner watching the sun go down at Ray's Boathouse on the salt water you cannot beat the seafood Seattle has to offer.
The Dim Sum at "House of Hong" in Chinatown is not only reasonably priced but internationally known as some of the best you can get. (One woman comes all the way from Poland just for their Dim Sum)
Seattle , Hotels:
10/10
If you are loaded there is the Sorento Hotel or the Fairmount Olympic. If you are looking for a mid priced place to stay, Silver Cloud on Lake Union is a great find. Or if you want there are many great Bed and Breakfast for a reasonable price.
Seattle , Safety:
7/10
There is very little crime in Seattle. Outside of a few drunk University students around the campus doing what I did many years ago, you will be very happy in all of the city.
You are an ignorant fuck

shut the fuck up. you are talking nothing but shit. clearly you have never been out of your home before, either that or you are one of those people that defeat the purpose of travel by eating and sleeping the same way they do when they are at home so that they don't feel so home sick and don't have to realise that there is actually a huge world filled with diverse and beautiful things out there and you have missed it because your head is in the sand. as far as eating the food and sitting on the toilet for a week, if you use your head correctly and take note of what you eat and take the proper precautions then eating in Kathmandu is wonderful. as far as hotels go, when was the last time you saw a hotel in the US for US$5 a night with a twin bed, hot water and breakfast served in the morning? because hat is the value for money you will find if you actually look around Kathmandu and many other less well off countries. my message here really is to just let people who read this bullshit know that what this moron has said is not true, and there are hundreds of incredible things to see and do in Nepal and the food, people and accommodation come in all colours and qualities. as for the writer of this, wake the fuck up before you waste your life. as for me, ill be trekking through the Annapurna ranges in a few months, something other than Mt Everest to do in Nepal, fancy that?

Looking forward to Kathmandu

Peter, rather strong language but take your point - I'm in the middle of organising a world trip and the only reason I wanted to go to Kathmandu was because I get to travel to Tibet from there, however, trying to get one trip to link with another is rather exasperating and realised I would end up staying there a few days between excursions so looked a bit further into it and realised that I'm actually glad I'm getting to stay a few days. My only comment for those that have said bad things about the place is that everyone's entitled to their opinion and I'll reserve mine until I see the place, however, I would like to think that regardless of what country I visit that I will look at things with an open mind and respect each country, its people and their way of life regardless of my own opinions. PS I've stayed in a few dodgy places in the states and got food poisoning from a cafe in my home town here in England!
