Welcome to Our Town
Tourist and travel writers have been exploring Ketchikan, Alaska since the day the city first incorporated back in the 1900. In these days visitors arrived in steamships, stepped across the plank dock and wandered down the wooden streets, gazed at totem poles, looked for the notorious red-light district of Creek Street, observed the salmon canneries, and watched the eagles soaring in flight. Tourists today arrive on airplane, cruise ships or by the Alaska Marine Highway System. Seeing some, if not all, of what the first visitors were looking for in Ketchikan, Alaska; the “Salmon Capital of the World”.
