The museum's diverse exhibits feature vibrant glass colors and unique shapes, truly inspiring awe at the artist's extraordinary creativity. Upon entering, you'll be captivated by a set of sculpted pieces that mirror the lighting, creating a uniquely designed, high-tech effect. The lighting evokes a sense of technology, forcing you to take a closer look.
Of course, if you walk further inside, you will be shocked by more exhibits, some small, some large. The large exhibits basically occupy the center of the entire exhibition hall, which is extremely exquisite!
This glass art museum is divided into indoor and outdoor exhibits. After exploring the indoor section, which mostly displays individual works, the outdoor section is like park art, featuring displays of vegetation and scenery. It's like strolling through a park and viewing a work of art. Even more breathtaking is the large greenhouse-like exhibition hall, where you can see the Space Needle from the skylight at the top, a truly stunning sight.

Glass and Garden is an exhibition of glass art blown by a local Seattle artist. It is divided into indoor and garden exhibitions, hence the name. The artist studied glassmaking for three years in Italy, most likely on the Murano Glass Island in Venice. His inspiration for his work comes from underwater animals in Seattle and ships he saw in Japan before.
The garden part combines plant-shaped glass with real plants, giving it a futuristic feel.

The Chihuly Glass Art Museum is basically a showcase for Chihuly's work and that of his team. It's quite good, not a large space, but it's very enjoyable to visit, and the exhibits are very impressive.
The colorful ceiling looks familiar, and is very similar to the ceiling of the Bellagio lobby in Las Vegas. I searched and found that they are indeed his works.

It includes a large number of Chihuly's glass artworks, which are exhibited both indoors and outdoors. The glass art exhibits here are graceful, varied in shape, and colorful, sometimes delicate and sometimes rough, as if each life is showing its vitality to people. It is an unparalleled visual feast.
In one of the corridors, the entire ceiling is made of glass, and the sunlight shines through, creating a dazzling array of colors on the walls! The experience is even more dreamy!

Located right next to the Space Needle, if you're planning to visit the Space Needle at night to enjoy the Seattle skyline, a visit to the Glass Art Garden in the afternoon to experience the unique charm of glass art is a great option. The garden houses a large collection of glass works by renowned American artist Chihuly, each exquisitely crafted and dazzling. Even someone like me, who doesn't have much artistic talent, can enjoy the exquisite and unique shapes of the stained glass. Combined with the darkroom lighting from different angles, it creates a breathtaking visual feast!

At the end of our Sunday trip, we took advantage of the last few minutes before closing time to visit the Chihuly Gallery and Glass. It's a truly stunning place with so much to offer. Chihuly is a renowned American glass artist, and his glass sculptures, illuminated by various colored lights, create a breathtaking visual experience.

When I first saw this attraction, I didn't have high expectations. I just bought a combined ticket with the Space Needle, so I went in to take a look. After entering, I was amazed by the various glass artworks with unique shapes, bizarre colors, and dazzling colors. It is truly worthy of being called a temple of glass art.

Right next to the Space Needle, the place is small, divided into indoor and outdoor areas, and the glass artwork is beautiful

Chihuly Garden and Glass is an art gallery that is well worth a visit, representing the highest level of contemporary glass art.

It's no big deal if you don't go up the Space Needle, but it would be a shame if you don't visit this garden.

The art exhibition is very worthwhile and is very beautiful.

Next to the Space Needle is the Chihuly Garden and Glass, which features a vast collection of Chihuly glass artworks, exhibited both indoors and outdoors, offering an unparalleled visual feast. Buying a combined ticket with the Space Needle saves around $8. Visiting in the evening is recommended, as much of the exhibit is outdoors, creating a magical effect when the light shines. Arty types shouldn't miss this attraction; it's said that its beauty can only be truly appreciated when you're there.

You can purchase a Seattle City Pass, which includes access to the Chihuly Museum of Glass (valid for nine days after the first use of the pass). I wasn't expecting much before entering, planning a quick tour. However, I was stunned upon entering. It was a visual feast. The museum, both indoors and outdoors, showcases a vast array of Chihuly glass art. The vibrant colors of the glass and the charming shapes create a unique beauty. The play of light and shadow at sunset is a truly delightful experience.

It is indeed very beautiful, and it is very good for decoration. The price is also good, several thousand dollars each.

Inside are all works of art made of glass, colorful and beautiful. I was amazed as soon as I walked in, and then I couldn't help but exclaim "Wow, Wow, Wow" several times in succession. It is super beautiful and not to be missed.

The glass museum of renowned Seattle-born American artist Chihuly is right next to the Space Needle. Having previously seen the glass museum on Jeju Island in South Korea, I didn't think it was necessary to visit it again. But once inside, I was struck by its grandeur. In the hands of this master, glass becomes a diverse form of art. It reminded me of the massive coral reef in the lobby of the Atlantis Hotel in Dubai. I looked it up online and it was indeed Chihuly's work.

Seattle is a very elegant, relaxed, and joyful city with a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery. This Chihuly glass tube is located in the heart of the city, very close to the Hour Hand. The museum has a rich collection of exhibits, divided into indoor and outdoor areas. The indoor area features mostly individual pieces, while the outdoor area is mostly grouped together. It's like a park we usually stroll through, but all the plants are made of glass, with vibrant colors and lifelike images. The American creativity and technological level are truly astounding! There's also an indoor exhibit that explains the history of glass, which is also quite good and worth checking out if you have time. There's a souvenir shop at the exit with beautiful items! Don't miss this museum when you visit Seattle. The A&V Museum in London also has Chihuly exhibits, but the selection is far less extensive. The pieces here are all unique.

Chihuly Garden and Glass is a highly recommended place to check out. I was already amazed by it while researching it, and once I arrived, I was even more captivated. The vibrant colors of the glass and the charming shapes create a unique beauty here. It's truly a palace of art.
The glittering lights against the dark background of the room make one marvel at how these shapes were made. Perhaps this is why it is famous.
Outdoors, with real flowers and plants, the scene is also unique and beautiful beyond words. The iron shed car in the art park is where glass is fired. It is actually a public lecture hall where people can learn how glass is fired and how it is colored. Here, you can not only see beauty, but also understand how beauty is obtained. The various shapes and colors of glass products, paired with flowers and plants, are a combination of art and nature.

I went there on my wife's birthday, and it was still quite crowded on a Friday. The feast of glass art is truly worth the price of admission for the visual experience. The venue isn't particularly large, but every room offers beautiful photos. There are also documentaries and performances. From the park, you can look up at the Space Needle. A combined park and needle ticket is just over $40. The experience is completely different during the day and at night. It was a truly enjoyable day.

A must-see for anyone who enjoys glass art. The art park is right next to the Space Needle. The glass artwork in the lobby of the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas is the work of this artist.

This is easily my favorite Seattle attraction. It's truly stunning! Ordinary stained glass, illuminated in a dark room, creates a breathtaking visual feast! I walked the one-way route inside, back and forth, and saw it three times. You can see how much I love it! The glass outside looks pretty ordinary.

The Chihuly Museum of Glass is at the foot of the Space Needle. The exhibits are truly beautiful and there are many things to see, but it is really small.

It's very beautiful inside, with all kinds of colorful glassware. It's worth going!

The Glass Garden is probably my favorite place in the Seattle itinerary. The glass inside is brightly colored, forming a sharp contrast with the dim background. It is very beautiful and it is also a great place for taking photos.

Opened in 2012, the pavilion showcases the work of local glass artist Dale Chihuly. Strolling through this sea of glass will truly unleash your artistic spirit.

This is a must-see. Tickets are $28.

The Glass Art Park is filled with glass artworks of various shapes. Although I don't understand the manufacturing process, it looks really beautiful. I recommend going at night because the effect is even better under the lighting. After the viewing, it is suitable to go to the Space Needle to enjoy the night view. You need to buy a separate ticket.

Chihuly Garden and Glass is located directly below Space Needle. I initially thought an art museum, especially one devoted to glass, would be rather dull. I was surprised by how completely captivated I was. I personally think visiting at night is even more effective. The indoor exhibits are virtually the same day and night, but the outdoor exhibits are somewhat visually disturbed by the daylight. All the works are incredibly beautiful.

It's a must-see attraction, right next to the Space Needle! I'm at a loss for words to describe this place, so here are some pictures for you to enjoy!

Coming down from the Space Needle, you turn the corner and arrive at the Chihuly Garden and Glass, which is a place that displays the glass works of the one-eyed master glass artist Chihuly.
The surrounding exhibition space is dark and silent, with only the ethereal light emanating from the crystal-clear glass creating a captivating experience. Each exhibit is enough to linger for a long time, marveling at the intricate shapes and splices of glass. Here, you'll notice that everyone's expression is similar: exclamations of awe, their eyes nearly popping out of their heads.
The museum's exhibition area is divided into two zones: indoor and outdoor. The indoor area is mysterious and spectacular, while the outdoor area is elegant and refreshing. The merchandise on display ranges from adorable and exquisite to rich and historic, quirky, and elegant, making it irresistible.

It's truly beautiful! The visual experience is truly captivating! Honestly, the colors are rich enough, but the quantity is limited! I finished browsing in less than an hour! And everyone just snaps away, taking photos and leaving. Few stop to admire these high-end crafts, which embody the designer's inspiration and the craftsman's dedication!

It's not big, but it's great. The ticket price is 25💲. I came here in early January and it closed at 19:00 in the evening.

It's gloomy in Seattle today
but!!!!
I have to say that the Glass Art Museum is so beautiful and very shocking
No matter how you take a picture, it is not as beautiful as what you see with your naked eyes.
This is also one of the famous Instagram celebrity check-in spots, beautiful girls must not miss it

The included attraction is right next to the Space Needle, so I decided to check it out. It was truly beyond my expectations! It's more interesting than the music museum and aquarium. The exhibits are all glass, and the exhibition area is divided into indoor and outdoor areas. If you go at night, you can see the Space Needle from the outdoor garden.

I bought the Citypass. It was very quiet and beautiful. There were not many people there. I was very happy.

The Glass Art Museum showcases a variety of glass designs, with several exhibition areas, both indoors and outdoors. I particularly enjoyed the indoor area, where the vibrant colors of the glass against the black background stand out. There's also a glass exhibition in a booth, which, combined with natural light, creates a particularly artistic effect.

The colorful glass art museum is like a fairy tale world~

Met Mr. Chihuly for his autograph, waiting in line

The ticket was $24. I entered the venue at around 1:00 p.m. and didn't want to leave until closing... Well, it closed quite early, at 4:00 p.m.
(Take note here, students coming later should remember to get up early!~)
The curator of this glass museum is an uncle named Chihuly. He has one eye covered like a pirate, but the other eye is extremely sharp.
There is a documentary about the uncle in the museum, which tells the process of making glass artworks.
Many times they would throw the finished glass components into the water, which would bring him great inspiration.
In addition to Seattle, they also have concentrated exhibitions in Finland, Venice and an ancient architectural site (I don’t remember the name...), and the artworks are all designed based on local characteristics.
“The location itself is the inspiration,” said Chihuly.

Chihuly Garden and Glass.🎐
On a rainy day in Rain City, I spent a long time inside the museum watching a documentary. The middle-aged blind artist looks like a one-eyed pirate, yet he's a master craftsman of exquisite craftsmanship. The glassmaking demonstrations were fantastic, and the gardens were beautiful on a rainy day. I've heard that before Dale Chihuly, glass had never been so beautiful.

The glass artwork is so beautiful and stunning! I also watched the production process of the artwork on site, which was very worthwhile.

Dale Chihuly, a master of modern glass art, has showcased his captivating blown glass around the world—from Venice to Jerusalem to London.
The art garden showcases Chihuly's work across eight rooms – including early experiments inspired by Native American blankets, the glass starfish and anemones from his Sea Life series, and the flower-shaped sculptures from his Thousand Flower Glass Project.
The most worth seeing is the chandelier.
If you're going to the Space Needle, you can stop by and see it, but if you're not going there, there's no need to go there specifically.

I didn’t expect that the cellophane could be so beautiful under the effect of light. It was an attraction I was really looking forward to, and it didn’t disappoint me at all. If you have time, you can come and have a look.
From travel notes http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/6621185.html

Strictly speaking, due to time constraints, I did not go in, but walked around. If I have time, I would go in and take a look.

A very artistic museum, the glass can be so gorgeous.

The art of glassblowing has always intrigued and mystified me. In the hands of a skilled artisan, even the hardest and most brittle glass can be shaped with unparalleled grace and flexibility, creating unique and dazzling works of art. Entering the Chihuly Museum of Glass, I felt more than just the appreciation of individual pieces. Their combination, concentration, and condensation create an unparalleled visual impact. Chihuly's life was truly turbulent. At the age of 35, he lost his left eye in a car accident. At 38, he dislocated his right arm while surfing, leaving him unable to lift a glassblowpipe. Desperate, he sought a new path and began employing glassmakers to help him realize his artistic vision. This is how he gradually transformed himself into a glass artist.

The glass art is magnificent and worth a visit. In short, it is very beautiful and the children like it very much.

The environment here is good and the artistic atmosphere is very strong. It is definitely worth a visit.

It's an absolute visual feast, you should go and see it, the photos are so beautiful.

At the bottom of the Space Needle, it closes at 8pm. You should go there after sunset. Then go to the Space Needle to see the night view~~ There are several theme areas, all of which are colorful glass artworks.

These glass artworks are really great! I just took a few extra photos. It's conveniently located right next to the Space Needle.

The so-called Garden is actually quite small. Even with the indoor pavilions and glass greenhouse, you can easily explore it all in just fifteen minutes. A thorough tour of the exhibits, a live demonstration of glass art creation, and a final, in-house documentary about the design and completion of Chihuly's founders and some of the larger exhibits is truly worthwhile and engaging. There are also people helping you take photos within the garden; remember to take your receipt and scan the QR code at the self-service photo machine to view your photos!

After seeing the beautiful exhibits, I recommend you to watch the video introduction.

It's so popular for no reason... Art is so confusing... Considering the ticket price, you could spend a whole day at MOMA in New York, but 30 minutes is enough for this museum...

A very beautiful and nice art park, not far from the Space Needle, I recommend going there

Highly recommended! Located in Seattle Center, right next to the Space Needle, a combined ticket with the Space Needle is $36, which is also included in the city pass. With both indoor and outdoor areas, all the exhibits are exquisite, colorful, and visually stunning.

I have to say it was amazing to see so much glass art! It was all made of blown glass by Chihuly and his apprentices. It took about an hour to explore the whole thing.

The Chihuly Gallery and Glass showcases works by renowned American glass sculptor Dale Chihuly. The gallery is divided into two sections: an indoor space and a garden. The indoor gallery envelops both the glass artwork and the visitor in darkness, but with appropriate lighting, it feels like being transported to Alice in Wonderland. The outdoor garden features towering glass-blown trees and vibrant blooms, seemingly capturing the world's most vibrant colors.

A particularly amazing exhibition. The artworks are all very beautiful. It is definitely worth a visit. You can also watch the glass art being made in the museum.

The glass craftsmanship is good and has a history. It costs more than 20 dollars to enter the museum, but it is worth seeing. There are also glass making demonstrations on site.

Beautiful! Upon entering, we were told that we could take photos, but not touch the glass. I was always afraid to get too close to the glass, as if I broke one, I'd be done with it. Also, be aware that the glassmaking workshop is outdoors. Also, if it's cold, don't be like me, standing in the drizzle for 15 minutes after checking in my coat. Overall, it's worth seeing!

A nice art garden, the glass products are still of high appreciation value.

It's definitely a place worth visiting. We bought tickets for the night, but it was not dark when we went in, so we could see it during the day and at night. It's so great, hahaha~~ I admire the master's creation. Art is magical. It brings you not only visual beauty, but also spiritual cleansing~

Beautiful is not enough to describe the Glass Art Museum
Recommended

I finally had the chance to visit the long-awaited Glass Art Garden Museum. While many cities have glass art, I think Seattle has the best and most beautiful I've seen so far. Walking in was a constant source of surprise, with vibrant colors, like something out of a fairy tale.
Tickets are sold automatically at the ticket machine at the entrance. It seems students get a discount. Inside, there are many indoor glass exhibition halls with different themes. You'll slowly walk through the lobby and into the outdoor park. The park is decorated with colorful flower beds and glass artworks of different colors. It's definitely worth a visit. You can also find some interesting trinkets in their gift shop.

Garden & Glass is also a quick tour project, where various glass products are combined to form a garden, etc., with bright colors and exaggerated shapes.

Since we were all walking around Seattle, I regretted not going to the Museum of Glass with my friends after returning from the abandoned gas plant that night. After seeing their recruitment photos, I felt that I had missed out. I recommend everyone to take an hour or two to go in and have a look.

We spent over two hours exploring the Chihuly Glass Art Park, both indoors and in the garden. Adult admission is $11 per person, and children under four are free. It felt well worth the price, as the works are truly stunning.
The tulips here are so enchanting. These beautiful flowers combined with the dynamic glass works make this a truly beautiful and amazing glass garden.

Chihuly Garden and Glass
Location: 305 Harrison Street, Seattle, WA, 98109
Glass products are originally works of art, crystal clear. Now, under the creativity of artists, they have come to life. Look at these graceful and varied shapes and colors, sometimes delicate and sometimes rough, as if each life is showing its vitality to people.
If you don’t see it, you will never know that glass can be so beautiful!
This is the outside of the exhibition hall. The glass gardening and the flowers and plants complement each other. I really admire the artist’s infinite creativity!

The Glass Museum is beautiful, and Chihuly himself is pretty crazy. It seems like if an artist isn't crazy, they won't succeed. He never really knows what he's going to create, but he always manages to turn a mess of glass into a work of art, and it's not ugly; it's even beautiful!

It wasn't crowded, so it was quiet inside. It was very beautiful, no wonder it's ranked number one on TripAdvisor. You must go, I highly recommend it, really.
I originally just wanted to visit and kill time since it was close to our hotel. But after arriving, I realized that its #1 ranking was absolutely justified and that it was well worth a visit. The lighting in the exhibition halls of Chihuly Garden and Glass was very dim, practically dark, with only lights near the exhibits, all of which were made of glass.
You really can only appreciate this beauty by being there. The exhibition hall is very quiet, with only the sounds of people talking in low voices and shutter clicks.
However, there will be tour guides next to some special exhibits, who will come to explain for about five minutes every half hour or hour.
Chihuly Garden and Glass also has outdoor exhibits. When you walk out of the exhibition hall, it's like a back garden. Of course, there are also many glass products on display.

Seattle's world-famous art glass museum, every piece is high-end

The glassware in Chihuly Garden and Glass is so beautiful that with the lights on, any words seem superfluous.

Chinhuly Garden and Glass is an exhibition by a renowned local Seattle glass artist. It's truly beautiful! Wonderland!!!
I highly recommend this attraction. You don't have to go up the Space Needle, but it would be a shame not to see it here! Dale Chihuly, an American glass sculptor, is famous for his challenging blown glass. The venue is divided into three parts: an outdoor garden, a glass house, and an interior exhibition, each with its own beauty. My favorites are the large glass works, which look like a dream under the backdrop of light and shadow. The glass house is also a highlight, and you can capture it together with the Space Needle, so even the clumsy ones can still take beautiful photos. The exhibits are said to be more beautiful at night, but we had to go to the Space Needle for the second show, so we didn't wait until then. The souvenir shop is also worth a visit. Many of the items are so beautiful, but the prices are too high to buy.
