Discover these places worth visiting in Anchorage and select a hotel nearby for ultimate convenience
Anchorage Museum
东东张西望望东西This is a very beautiful museum. Through the Anchorage Museum of History and Art, you can learn about Anchorage and even Alaska's history and humanities. There are not many visitors and the materials are very rich.
Flattop Mountain
TTodemmyWe stayed at Williwa Campground and hiked the trails. It was very nice. Lots to do. Be sure to check out the nature trail when the salmon come upriver! I believe this is part of the USFS Chugach NF.
Alaska Zoo
东东张西望望东西The Alaska Zoo is very large. There are very few tourists in the cold winter, but not many animals come out of the zoo. I guess they all hide in warm places. But the zoo in winter is also very beautiful surrounded by snow.
Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center
Wwxx1026It's pretty good. You can see wild black bears and brown bears, which are protected after being injured in the wild and fenced for everyone to visit, as well as some other animals. It's not far from Anchorage, and you will pass by here after getting off the boat at Whittier Pier.
Aurora Show
DDEAR张小球Winter attracts a lot of tourists. Whether you can see the scenery you want is a matter of luck. However, the scenery here in winter is indeed very beautiful, although the temperature is relatively low.
Captain Cook Monument
DDEAR张小球This is the landmark of the city and is located in the center of the city. Since the hotel is near the monument, I always pass by here when I go in and out. The weather is cold and I don’t see many people coming here to visit.
Alyeska Aerial Tram
TTodemmyThis is more like a review of the campground than a review of the trails, because we actually spend more time on the campground loop than on the trails. There is a parking lot in front of the entrance to the campground, which leads to the trails and the salmon viewing platform. The campground is large with lots of nice sights, trails through it; you can hike from here Willawaw Trail and Trail of Blue Ice. Beautiful views of the mountains and glaciers behind. Water and toilets. It is late in the season and almost empty, but I can imagine it is very busy in the summer.
William A. Egan Civic & Convention Center
DDEAR张小球It is a relatively lively place. There are many shopping malls and shopping centers around it, as well as many restaurants and cafes. If you stay in a hotel in the city, you can basically choose a hotel around here. The transportation is also convenient
Chugach State Park
TTodemmyWe stayed at Williwaw Campground and hiked the Blue Ice Trail behind the campground. It's a very easy, wide, flat trail - very low elevation. You can also access the Williwaw Nature Trail from there. We walked all the way to the Boggs Visitor Center and also hiked the Byron Glacier Trail. It was foggy/cloudy the day we went, but still a nice hike. We saw moose tracks in the mud - no moose tracks though! We enjoyed this easy trail. Worth an hour or two. You can also hike to Moose Flats (from Williwaw Campground) in the opposite direction of the Visitor Center. Pretty much the same scenery.
Alaska Native Heritage Center
LLavender and SunAnchorage also has a bus transportation system called People Mover, and there is a central intersection in the city center, and there is a satellite intersection in the Diamond Center and Mude Shopping Center. People Mover also provides point-to-point transportation services for the elderly and disabled, and organizational services for co-op.
