Sitka

In Sitka I really enjoyed the Russan Orthodox Church and the Russian Bishop's House. These spoke to the Russian influence in Sitka and Alaska. The church ran it's own tour and had a priest available for information and reference.


The Bishop's House is run by the park service and has ranger guides through the house. they are resident guides and very informative.  The information given is on the construction of the house and the furniture. the bishop built some of it  himself.
