If you're curious about Alaska's rich history and culture, the Alaska State Museum in the Andrew P. Kashevaroff Building is a must-visit. It's like stepping into a world where the stories of Alaska's diverse regions come alive. The museum boasts a mix of seasonally changing fine art and historic exhibits, along with impressive permanent displays that delve into the state's past and artistic heritage. Don't miss the chance to explore the historical research center of the State Library and Archives. There's also a charming little café and a store where you can pick up unique souvenirs.
Fun fact: Juneau, where the museum's located, is not accessible by road. You'll need to fly in or take a ferry, which makes the journey just as exciting as the destination itself!
