The experience of shopping in Alaska is very different from the typical mall excursions. Alaska shopping is more of a discovery tour into the indigenous history & culture of the state. Each shop offers a unique collection of items including intricately woven baskets, wild berry products, gold nugget jewelry, jade carved pieces, beautiful handicrafts, native seal oil candles, hand-carved miniature totem poles and so on. A good way to confirm the authenticity of the products you buy is to check for the “Made in Alaska” logo.
