This image-map spans the area from Whistler in the north, Hope to the east, Victoria to the west and Olympia, WA, to the south. Seattle is the largest city in Washington. A city of steep hills, Seattle lies in western Washington between two bodies of water-Puget Sound on the west and Lake Washington on the east. Its fine landlocked harbor has made Seattle one of the major ports in the United States. It was named Seattle after a friendly Suquamish Indian Chief (Seattle is only an approximation of his name). A disastrous fire almost destroyed the entire business district in 1889.
