Metzker Maps is a little treasure located near Pike Place Market, and it’s definitely worth some of your Seattle shopping attention. As the name implies, they carry a huge range of maps and map-related products: portable maps from around the world; huge wall maps, many featuring the wonders of the Pacific NW; a fantastic selection of travel guides, including detailed books about hikes throughout the Pacific NW and books featuring just about every world destination imaginable; and a great selection of other books about travel and maps.

Also, I’m a postcard writer and Metzker Maps has a fantastic selection of postcards from Seattle and around the Pacific NW, many of which feature really cool and memorable graphic design. The staff is consistently welcoming and helpful; I appreciated that during my fall 2020 visit they were following COVID-19 protocols carefully. A gem!…

I was enchanted as soon as we stepped through the doorway. Could have stayed there for hours, just examining the maps - all kinds of maps - that fill the store. Could have spent a small fortune buying some of them to bring home, too, but my wife was with me and helped me see sense. An hour and a half later, and a hundred dollars or so poorer, she managed to drag me away. I'll be back!…
