If you are visiting Alaska, one thing that will strike you about the whole experience is how genuine both the people and the surroundings are. So, if you are thinking of purchasing a souvenir for yourself or a friend, you want to make sure that the item is just as genuine as the place it comes from. That is what makes the Knotty Shop so special. Not only do they offer an extensive selection of all-Alaskan made gifts, it is also a wildlife museum, a gun collection and ice cream shop all in one convenient and very entertaining place.
Some of the best attractions in Alaska are the natural kind, and you can see them up close when you take time to visit the Large Animal Research Station in Fairbanks. This is actually one of the more popular attractions in the area, as the facility has thousands of visitors each year. The large number of people who walk through the doors of the Large Animal Research Station is understandable as they all look forward to seeing such indigenous creatures as muskoxen and caribou at a dramatically close distance.
Strike up a great time with friends and family when you play a few frames at Arctic Bowl. This well-regarded bowling venue is where Fairbanks goes to bowl, and it has also proven to be an excellent place for family fun and recreation, too. In addition to the many lanes and state-of-the-art scoring, there is a big arcade that the kids will love as well as a concession stand with a generous selection of tasty treats.
