Stunningly beautiful, small, pricey but very well laid out and interesting museum all about Chihuly and his glass works. The movies were great mix of his history and how the types of pieces were made. Live demonstrations in the gardens periodically during the day too! Perfect for kids as well given the size and small numbers of things to focus on. The glass pieces were mesmerizing.

It’s beautiful, words and pictures can’t truly express the beauty of this place. It’s a must-visit if you are in Seattle for a city trip. Even though we went on the weekend, it wasn’t super busy. They also have live glass-making shows at certain hours every day which are amazing to watch. My suggestion is to buy the City Attractions Pass, which covers several places and is cheaper than buying individual tickets.

If you like Chihuly, glass and/or art, you absolutely must busy. I would turn the corner in rooms and literally gasp with how beautiful and impressive a piece of collection of pieces was. I also loved that there was a demo and an outdoor garden. We walked there from Pike Place Market area, which is doable, but it was a bit of a distance. We enjoy walking and seeing the city we're visiting, so it wasn't a big deal for us.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — Amazing Experience at Chihuly Garden and Glass! We had recently visited the Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum in Seattle and absolutely loved it, it was truly one of the most breathtaking art work I’ve ever seen. The glass artworks are stunning , very colorful, creative, and way bigger than I had expected. The Glasshouse was my favorite spot; the huge glass installation hanging from the ceiling looks incredible with all the natural light coming in. There are stunning views of Space Needle from the garden as it is located very near to Space Needle. The outdoor garden area is also really cool, with glass pieces mixed in with the plants. It’s perfect for photos and just walking around and enjoying the vibe. We took a lot of photos there. The combination of nature and art makes the whole place feel peaceful and inspiring. The museum layout is easy to follow, staff are friendly. It is a great spot for art lovers, families, or anyone visiting Seattle for the first time. Although the ticket price is pretty expensive but it is worth it. We bought the City Pass as that looked like a better deal for us. Overall, it’s a relaxing and beautiful place to visit. Whether you’re into art or just looking for something unique to do in Seattle, this museum is definitely a must see.
