马里斯维尔 语音导览

Marysville began as a trading post on the edge of Puget Sound lowlands in 1872, but it was the strawberry that made it famous. By the 1920s the surrounding fields produced enough berries that the town crowned itself the Strawberry City, a title it still celebrates each summer with Washington state's longest-running festival, complete with carnival, parade, and an improbable amount of jam.

The Tulalip Tribes have shaped this place far longer than any municipal charter.

Their Hibulb Cultural Center, opened in 2011 as the first tribally run facility with state certification in Washington, preserves centuries of Coast Salish history that predates the trading post by millennia. The 1911 Opera House still stands downtown, a reminder that even a small agricultural town once demanded stages and spectacle.
