Memorial Way, University District

This is just a beautiful street or entrance into the UW campus. I love seeing the tree-lined street in full bloom. The Japanese cherry blossoms are exquisite. UW is arguably one of the prettiest university campuses around and that is saying a lot from a girl who went to only private liberal arts park like colleges in the northwest. The entrance is very pretty and not too crowded if you know when to travel. Spring break is great because of the students being away at home or summer when the campus is considerably quieter. You can even catch glimpses of Mt. Rainier when the sky is clear and conditions are sunny. This is certainly a beautiful street.

Memorial Way is University of Washington campus. Park near the entrance and walk south to mid-campus. Best times to visit are in the summer (less crowded) or in April when the Japanese cherry trees are in full bloom in the "Quad". This is a sightseeing trip more than anything else and a very pleasant walk. If the skies are clear be prepared for a great views of Mt. Rainier as you approach "Red Square".
