Metsker Maps

Great place for edutainment (did not make that word up but pretty sure it’s not in the dictionary yet) map gifts, souvenirs and other items. As someone who studied geography in school this is more like a Toys «R» Us pitstop for me. They have some very neat artwork as well of the Seattle and Puget Sound area that I think many people would like regardless of their ability to find true north or magnetic north. Gave them four out of five stars because let’s face it this stuff is pretty cool, but they did not have glow-​in-​the-​dark constellation globe I was looking for so I may have to shop online, but otherwise lots of affordable knickknacks and even few unaffordable ones for y’all wealthy upper class folks.
Geocache me if you can,

This place was so fun to visit! They have a lot of unique stuff that you would be hard– pressed to find anywhere else. I was surprised at how reasonable the prices were… especially considering it is a specialty shop. I will definitely be back!

This is another location to the Metsker Maps in Pike Place market. The place sells maps and travel guides. I have already really liked walking into the other location in Pike Place market since maps are such a dying art with all the map apps and all. But there is something comforting about being able to open up a paper map and finding your route. I hope this place is here to stay!
