Seattle Sunsets: Beyond the Space Needle

🍸 That evening, the breeze was gentle, and thin clouds were tinted in layers of orange and pink. I sat at The Mountaineering Club, perched atop the Graduate Seattle Hotel. ‼️ From here, you get a unique panoramic view of the city — the Space Needle glowing gold in the distance, backed by the rolling Olympic Mountains. On a clear day, the snowy peaks shimmer in the sunset light, as if the city and nature are breathing as one. 🌸 Isn’t this what people call the “golden hour of twilight”? The Mountaineering Club isn’t just a bar — it’s more like an urban lookout. Inside, the retro mountaineering theme features warm wood decor, reminiscent of a cozy alpine lodge. 📍 The Mountaineering Club Address: 4507 Brooklyn Ave NE, Seattle Tips: ☕ • Be sure to reserve an outdoor seat in advance — the west-facing side offers the best views. 🌆 • Arrive half an hour before sunset for the golden hour — perfect for capturing the transition from daylight to sunset, blue hour, and finally the city lights. 🌙 • On a clear day, you can see the Space Needle, Olympic Mountains, and Lake Union all at once. 📌 • Don’t forget to bring a valid photo ID — it’s required for entry, whether you plan to drink or not. #sunset#Seattle#travelguide#Seattletravel#washington
