The Alaska Center for the Performing Arts showcases music concerts, dance performances and theater productions. The Alaska Native Heritage Center's mission is to educate patrons both young and old about Alaska's indigenous population, including explaining why Alaskans dislike the term "Eskimo."
The Alaska Museum of Natural History or the Alaska Museum of Science and Nature is a great place for children to interact with exhibits and engage in hands-on learning. Moving from interior to exterior spaces, the Alaska Botanical Garden focuses on education, preservation, recreation and research. Guests are encouraged to visit the gardens year-round.
Prince William Sound, with its crystal blue waters, is a short drive away and offers amazing glacier cruises. Those who want to experience nature in a more controlled setting should try the Alaska Zoo.
Alaska is perfect for active travelers. Reserve your room at any of our Anchorage hotels where you can rest properly and awake reinvigorated the next morning.
