He said he checked the video, that it was not given, he issued a cheque for reimbursement. I'm thankful that he honored my claim. I received the refund checked today. Thank you... Alicia S.

We only had a few minutes to quickly look at the inside before he closed the church. It was a shame because we would have liked more time to spend seeing this iconic Russian Orthodox Church. You can admire the church unique architecture for free from the outside, but there is a fee to see the inside. What is interesting is that before Alaska became the 49th of the United States, it was colonized by Russia. The original church, designed by Bishop Innocent himself, was built between 1844 and 1848 out of spruce timber and sailcloth for insulation. As it was the first on the continent, St. Michael's was the seat of the Russian Orthodox Diocese of North America. It was the largest building in Alaska at that time. Liturgies are predominantly in English, but hymns are sung in Tlingit; Aleut; Yupik; and Slavonic, the language of Russian Orthodox services, as well. Sadly, the original building caught fire in 1966 and burnt to the ground. The townspeople collected what artifacts they could of the demolished church, including precious icons. These were put on display in the new St. Michael's, an exact replica of the original with some modern updates. The walls of St. Michael's are still lined with sailcloth in memory of both the original church and those who have lost their lives at sea.

I enjoyed the exceptionally friendly service and the helpful staff. Seems like everyone working there was indeed happy to be there. The one constructive piece of criticism I would give would be in reference to the fitting rooms. The doors are saloon style, don't really close securely and are right off the main store floor. So, there really isn't a sense of privacy, and I felt like anyone shopping who might happen to look in just the right direction might actually be able to see me in the changing room if they wanted. Other than that, it's a great little shop with a large variety of unique and local clothing and wares. I highly recommend stopping in and giving them all your time and money.

What a cute flower, coffee, and chocolate shop! I just wish they had more seating inside…read more It just happened to be raining while we were on our way for coffee. People will tell you to bring an umbrella to Alaska. No, you should really just bring a really good waterproof hoody coat. It was bulky, but it protected me from the elements. It's just too windy for an umbrella. Anyway, I thought about trying the spruce tip latte. I ended up getting a Dirty Chai. It was very good. I didn't get to try my husband's Mexi-Mocha with cayenne pepper. He really liked the flavors. He's never had a spicy latte, so it was a real treat for him. The shop has some moose chocolate treats, gifts, flowers, and unique gift items. It was my first time seeing Alaskan sea otter fur earrings. An Alaska native artist makes them. The flowers that they sell here look fresh and beautiful. It's very close to the public library and Harrigan Centennial Hall. It was the perfect stop before getting on the bus back to the Sitka Sound Cruise Terminal. It's also a great stopping point after visiting the Baranof Castle State Historic Site on a cold day. Check it out if you're in Sitka.
