Yakima is located in the south-central part of the U.S. state of Washington, and is the county seat of Yakima County. It is located in the heart of the Yakima Valley, about 2.5 hours from Seattle. The city is known as the "Sunshine City", with an average of more than 300 days of sunshine per year, and has a well-developed agricultural industry, especially famous for apple, cherry and other fruit cultivation, and is known as the "Apple Capital of the World". The Yakima Valley is also an important wine-producing region in Washington State, with more than 80 wineries, and is highly regarded for its Riesling and Merlot varieties. In addition, outdoor resources are abundant, with Mount Rainier National Park and Sunshine State Park in the vicinity for hiking, fishing and other activities. With a population of about 93,000 and a multicultural blend that preserves the characteristic architecture of the western pioneering period, it is a gateway to explore the culture and nature of Central Washington.
