Perched on the open Pacific Ocean, surrounded by mountains and rich in history, Sitka is a treat for outdoor enthusiasts and culture seekers alike. The Tlingit people have called Sitka home for thousands of years. Russian settlers, led by Alexander Baranov (for whom Sitka’s Banarof Island is named) occupied Sitka in the early 1800s and established it as the capital of Russian America.
About Sitka
Paris of the Pacific
Sitka is an Alaskan town that will not disappoint. With its majestic mountain peaks, clear waters, lush forestry, and abundant wildlife, the community offers plenty to explore. A mix of Russian cultural influences and Tinglit heritage has given Sitka a rich culture and history. The Tlingit tribe has lived in Southeastern Alaska for thousands of years and tradition in Sitka is kept alive today.
Previously known as “Paris of the Pacific” for its high society culture, Sitka reflects part of its history through the arts. The Naa Kahidi Dancers are Tlingit performers of all ages that maintain the art of storytelling through dance. More dancers, the New Archangel Dancers, are an all-female dance troupe that perform in the summer and represent the Russian-American culture of Sitka.
