Exploring Sitka Alaska's Unique Souvenir Shops: Beyond the T-Shirts
Come with me on a journey through the charming streets of Sitka, Alaska, in my latest KZread adventure! Join me as I explore the unique world of souvenir shopping, where every trinket tells a story of this historic town. We'll have a mesmerizing encounter with a piece of ancient history - the Woolly Mammoth. Discover how this prehistoric giant has found its way into the souvenir scene, creating a bridge between the past and the present. As we navigate the quaint streets, we'll also take you to the majestic Baranof Castle State Park, where the echoes of Alaska's rich history resonate in every stone. Wander through the enchanted woods to stumble upon the Russian Orthodox Cemetery, a hidden gem surrounded by nature's embrace. Join me on this unforgettable journey, where souvenirs intertwine with history, and the spirit of Sitka comes alive in every purchase!

Lucky Duck!!! Have fun!
My wife grew up in Sitka. She is 65 now and can recall when the first cruse ships began to arrive there when she was 12. The industry was small at first but then began to take off!

Wow, that would be something to see, it must have been exciting to have a big cruise ship pull into your little village. Thanks for sharing that memory.

@@TinagirlTravels the best way to describe it is that it was like an invasion, only a few at first, then a flood!! Sitka was a small southeastern town and it didn't seem like a tourist destination, but the tourists kept coming! Now in the summer the tour business is a huge, bustling industry!! It's been an interesting experience for my wife.
I think we will bring an extra suitcase for all these treasures featured in your video!

Absolutely! I always laugh now when people say “we only travel with a carry on”. I travel with a carry on inside a giant suitcase, 😂
The Devils Club is amazing

I am looking forward to the icy strait point video! Will you be posting a video for Seward and anchorage, or did you not go to the towns? Thanks! 😁

I’m just working on it now! Hoping it will be out by the weekend. We did not go to Anchorage or Seward, definitely want to check out those ports of call. What ship are you going on?

End of July, beginning of August.
Did you do the old time phtotos at forget me not? We are wanting to do that but was curious if they have a good clothes selection? Also she said they only have the bar scene but she said we can move stuff around and take pictures around the store since we dont want to do a bar scene. On TripAdvisor it says they have 50 greenscreen backdrops and a dog sled, victorian couch, etc so I'm guessing those are old pictures and description and they don't have that stuff anymore? I'm sure we will have fun anyway but was just curious. 😊 Also if our cruise ship leaves at 4 then around what time should we catch the shuttle back to the cruise ship? We want to have time to explore these stores but don't want to miss the ship.

Hi Amber, I didn’t do the photo shoot, I was traveling on my own for this trip. It would be fun to do though. The ship will let you know what time to be back by. Everything is really close by once you get into town. Enjoy your trip!
I'm sorry to keep bugging you 😅 we unfortunately won't have time to go to all the stores but I am having problems deciding between Artist Cove Gallery or Island Artist Gallery. Which one would you recommend between the two. We aren't in to buying paintings so I am leaning towards the Artist Cove Gallery? I am having problems deciding on the stores to go to since I want to go to them all lol 😆
