Since Alaska features such an expansive and rustic landscape, it's no wonder that its development and growth owes much to the field of aviation. The Alaska Aviation Museum documents the role that aviation has played in the state's history and growth from 1897 up to the present day. You'll see exhibits and attractions that tell the story of Alaska's WWII fliers, early bush pilots, as well as efforts to preserve vintage aircraft. The museum is located at the largest seaplane facility in the world, and all that space affords the presentation of scale models, restored planes and even a theater that presents films on the various aircraft.

Instead of going to a movie and then having a couple of drinks afterward, why not do both at the same time? You can do just that on a date at the Beartooth Theatre Pub.The wide-ranging menu includes pizza, tacos, subs and other munchies as well as a fully-stocked bar. Enjoy various movies as you have your meal in a relaxed, fun atmosphere that is truly one of Anchorage's most unique places to relax with your special someone.

Alaska's wildlife is everywhere, but to leisurely observe some species can be a challenge. Luckily, you can relax and ease up to a moose or a young deer, maybe take a look at a herd of reindeer or snap a photo of a bull elk. All of this is possible at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center.
