USA: Seattle Space Needle

Today I got three postcards: one from the USA, one from New Zealand and one from Japan.

The card from the USA shows the Space Needle in Seattle. Seattle is a city in the State of Washington and the largest city in the north-west of the USA. The Space Needle was built for the world exhibition 1962 in Seattle. Then it was the first building in North America with rotating restaurant. Today it is an important sight of Seattle and is visited by more than 1million visitors every year.
