Often, food tells a more fascinating story about a place than its attractions and people. While you are in Juneau, take a trip to Mount Robert, where you can ride a tram up the mountain. Also, try eating some fresh seafood at a local restaurant, such as the Timberline Bar and Grill. And for a more romantic evening, try a tour of the Juneau Opera House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church is another great place to try Alaska&#8217;s indigenous food. The Juneau Russian Orthodox congregation was responsible for building the building, but it didn&#8217;t make the natives give up their languages. The Russians also sent plans for the building, but did not force the natives to speak English. During World War II, more than 800 Aleuts were deported to internment camps. The effect of this forced removal was devastating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many hiking trails in Juneau. One of the most popular is the West Glacier Trail. Nearby Douglas Island, you can also hike the Douglas Island trails, which will give you a breathtaking view of the Tongass National Forest. If you&#8217;re a bit more adventurous, you can try the Thunder Mountain trail, which is a little rough. But it offers incredible views of the city and the surrounding area. And once you&#8217;ve had your fill of the city&#8217;s skyline, take a hike on Mount Roberts!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for something more educational, visit the Juneau-Douglas City Museum. Located near the State Capitol, this museum offers exhibits pertaining to the history of the city and the Tlingit people. During off-season, you can even enjoy free admission at the museum. Exhibits here range from mining history to fishing to culture. And if you&#8217;d like to learn more about the culture of the local people, you can take a free downtown walking tour. If you&#8217;re interested, it&#8217;s easy to explore the historic neighborhoods as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a historical trip, Juneau is definitely the place to go. The city is home to several historic landmarks, including the Mendenhall Glacier and St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church. There are also several museums that tell the history of the town. And there are many things to do in Juneau, from whale watching tours to historic pubs. For something a bit more laid back, try a quaint little museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a bit more adventure, try an Eagle Beach tour. Located north of Juneau, this area is a great spot for hiking and can be home to bald eagles. Eagle Beach is also perfect for marine-life watching. In addition to bald eagles, you can also see harbor seals, Sitka black-tail deer, and bald eagles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The city is the oldest city in Alaska and is known for its gold rush history. Visitors can take whale watching tours between April and September. The most common whales seen in Juneau are humpback whales and resident orcas. Over 500 humpback whales migrate through Southeast Alaska&#8217;s Inside Passage during these months. You can also take a boat tour if you&#8217;re looking to see one of these majestic mammals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the best things to do in Juneau Alaska is sampling the local cuisine.
