This giant panoramic work of art spans forty metres in circumference and reaches fourteen metres in height, capturing the small fishing village of Scheveningen as it was in the late nineteenth century in a cyclorama. It creates the illusion that the observer is atop a large sand dune looking down upon the village, an illusion which is complemented by the foreground within the artwork that is made up of artificial terrain. The museum is dedicated to the single work of art from Hendrik Willem Mesdag and there are lots of ways to experience it including a guided tour, lectures and even children’s treasure hunts.

You don’t even have to go far—or leave the city—to fish in Anchorage. During salmon season, Ship Creek, just a few blocks from downtown, fills up with locals trying their luck. Outfitters around town can help with gear, licenses, and tips if you’re new to it. If you’ve got a car, there are plenty of spots within an hour where you can go after trout, grayling, and more salmon.

Witnessing the surreal Northern Lights is a bucket-list moment for many travelers visiting Alaska. This tour in Anchorage gets you beyond the city lights and into the quiet dark, where the Aurora has room to dance across the sky.
