Unlike most other port gift/souvenir shops tied to the cruise industry, which I found out are owned by Royal Caribbean and what they offer are almost all, if not all "Made in China" gift/souvenirs. If you want REAL, "Made in Alaska" gifts/souvenirs, from a locally family-owned business and to support the Sitka community, then this is the place! Stop in and check them out. I promise you will not regret it! M. Mills Ohio, USA

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.

It is an iconic Russian Orthodox Church. There is a plague outside talking about the history of the church. It is located in the central downtown loop.

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.

Very nice high-end art gallery in downtown Sitka. The shop is relatively small but has a fairly…read morelarge selection of different types of artwork where the bronze statues and their intricate designs and beautiful finishes caught my eye. These pieces are developed using a mold where the bronze is then cast around it. The finishes which come across as marble in appearance once done are achieved via a secondary operation using an etching process. Finished product is absolutely beautiful and will provide a lifetime of enjoyment where these limited production pieces of work offer the buyer/collector the satisfaction in knowing very few pieces like this exist in the world! If you are a fan of fine artwork, then this is a business not to be missed. Free shipping back home is included with the purchase of the bigger pieces which also is a big plus if you're on a cruise ship like I am!

Obviously they're Radio Shack branded items are beginning to dwindle, but, they have a lot of other related products and non-radioshack brand equipment. I like to have you electronic parts as well as some new old stock stuff for people like me. You can definitely get things like chargers and phone heads, routers everything you need. They catered to both locals and tourists. They also had an extensive lineup of office supplies, because you never know when need a pair of scissors,or pencil erasers they got you covered. Again good pricing top notch service 5 out of 5 stars I'd give them 6 stars if I could overall wonderful experience!
