Fairbanks Alaska
Known as the Golden Heart City, Fairbanks is your gateway to Alaska's interior - and one of the best places on Earth to watch the Aurora Borealis dance overhead.
Highlights
A true four-seasons destination, from the Midnight Sun in summer to the aurora in winter.
Aurora Viewing
Clear skies and a prime spot under the auroral oval make Fairbanks one of the most reliable places in the world to see the Northern Lights.
Chena Hot Springs
Soak in natural geothermal pools about an hour outside town - a favorite way to warm up after a night of aurora watching.
Museum of the North
Part of the University of Alaska, with exhibits spanning the state's natural history, native cultures, and art.
