    Seattle was originally inhabited by Native Americans from the Duwamish tribe. The name Seattle honors their Chief Si’ahl. The Klondike Gold Rush brought many settlers and helped Seattle become a transportation center. In the early 1900s, theaters and silent movies found their home in Seattle. Today, Seattle’s orchestra and ballet companies have won awards, while their theaters rival those of New York.

Seattle is home to one of the largest Ferris wheels in the country, as well as the famous Space Needle, which was built for the 1962 World Fair.
