If you're an outdoors kind of person and really enjoy the
sights and sounds of nature, or simply enjoy not being trapped inside a
building all day, then Seattle Washington
has plenty to offer you should you decide to visit? When planning your visit to
Seattle, you will probably find
that there are many things that appeal to you and it is quite difficult to
narrow them down by interest alone.

This is the point when I divide activities into categories
such as: things I really want to do, things that seem interesting, and things
that will really just pass the time. Then, I take those things and do a reality
(which translates to price) check. I try to justify the expenses of the things
I really want to do that are more than I'd like to pay by sneaking in things
I'd like to do equally as much for free. It's a great concept and works really
well when giving children a choice of activities. Let them choose between two
free activities. They still get a voice and feel as though they are an
important part of the decision making process and you aren't spending $50 an
hour for them to jump on a fancy trampoline. Natural Freebies is sponsored by
Here are some of the excellent free activities that can be
enjoyed in the great outdoors of Seattle Washington.
The really great news is that many of these are actually both entertaining and
educational. This is good for you and the kids who will leave Seattle
with some degree of knowledge about something other than the ice cream flavors
that are offered there.
The first freebie that I recommend is the Volunteer Park
Conservatory. This is of special interest to those who love flowers. The
conservatory is divided into five houses which each provide a suitable habitat
for growing very specific plants. The five houses are: Bromeliad House, which
is members of the pineapple family; Palm House, which consists of about 1200
species; Fern House, which features an assortment of tropical ferns and other
exotic plants; Seasonal Display House, which changes with the season and
consists of many common and recognizable house plants; and Cactus House, which
is rather self explanatory. The conservatory is free to the public and a great
way to pass time for any flower lover in your group.
Next there is the Washington
Arboretum Park.
This park is actually a 200-acre arboretum that was designed by the same firm
responsible for the design of Central Park in New
York. The park hosts 40,000 trees, shrubs, and vines.
You can pay for a tour or simply wander around and enjoy the landscape. The
purpose of this park is to preserve certain species of plants while offering
education to the public and anyone who wishes to learn and benefit from the
knowledge that can be gained there. This paragraph is sponsored by Holy trip 2013 from UK.
Next there is the Woodland Park Rose Garden. This garden is
located next to the zoo but is open to the public free of charge. There is a $4
parking fee during zoo hours, but parking is free after hours. The climate of Seattle
is mild enough that roses seem to flourish and grow beautifully here. The rose
gardens receive over 200,000 visitors each year and are a great sight to see
while you are visiting Seattle.
Finally, there is Discovery
Park. This park offers stunning
views and a place to contemplate the beauty of nature and the surroundings of Seattle.
The park itself is 534-acres making it the largest city park in Seattle.
The purpose of this park was to provide sanctuary for wildlife and a place to
learn about nature for those who were interested. The park has a play area for
children, picnic equipment, and trails and paths for exploration.
Nature is a wonderful thing to behold and Seattle
is blessed with some of the most beautiful natural surroundings on earth. It
only makes sense that while on vacation you should be able to enjoy the
beautiful plants, animals, and scenery that abound in the area. I sincerely
hope you take the opportunity to enjoy some of these great places. This
