Embark on the Seattle Audio Tour: Flavors, Forests, and Stories of North Beacon Hill

Beneath Seattle’s everyday bustle, North Beacon Hill guards dramatic secrets—a forest once infamous for danger, a Zen sanctuary hidden in plain sight, tunnels echoing with untold stories. Each corner here hints at battles fought both in shadow and light.

This self-guided audio tour leads through streets most visitors only glimpse, unlocking mysteries in the overlooked heart of the city. Let locals’ legends, forgotten scandals, and unexpected beauty fill every step.

Who vanished without trace in the darkness of The Jungle? Which secret negotiations at Beacon Hill Station changed the city’s direction overnight? Why does a certain gong at Dai Bai Zan Cho Bo Zen Ji ring on a solitary afternoon each April?

Traverse shifting landscapes and tangled pasts—feel the grit of urban wilderness, the hush of sudden sanctuary. See North Beacon Hill as few ever have: alive with rebellion, suspense, and untold wonder.

Start listening now—Seattle’s hidden stories are waiting in the shadows.
