It is free. It is small and cute . Worth checking out and wonder along the photo stories and also the materials used during the Gold Rush. Hard to find its entrance.

An undiscovered National Park Service gem, hidden in a historic hotel in downtown Seattle

Beth Bond

This is one of the best kept secrets in downtown Seattle. Part of the national park system, this free museum has two films that discuss the gold rush and history of Seattle. Close to King Street.

Lots of stuff for your passbook: (a) Stamp is in bookstore ; (b) 3 embossed stamps in exhibit ; (c) Etched image from metal plate; (d) 2 more stamps but you must take boat or train . Good luck!!
