A stroll along the more touristy waterfront lets you enjoy fabulous views of Elliott Bay. At the Seattle Center in the north, the Space Needle presides over cultural institutions and carnival rides, as well as the city's latest draw, the Experience Music Project . Several outlying districts are often livelier than downtown: Capitol Hill 's cafés and bars are the heart of the city's hipster and gay scene, and the University District is a student area with inexpensive cafés and uptempo nightlife.
