Seattle Parks & Nature

Seattle’s green spaces range from the sprawling 534-acre Discovery Park on Puget Sound to the industrial ruins of Gas Works Park on Lake Union. This collection features botanical highlights like the Victorian-style Volunteer Park Conservatory and the 20-acre Kubota Garden. Visitors can find iconic skyline views at Kerry Park, explore the Brutalist architecture of Freeway Park, or see the historic "Hat 'n' Boots" at Oxbow Park. The list also includes the Olympic Sculpture Park’s outdoor gallery and the serene 3.5-acre Seattle Japanese Garden.
