Top 10 attractions in Juneau
Mendenhall Glacier
Mendenhall Glacier is located near Juneau, the capital of Alaska, United States. It is one of many glaciers extending from the Juneau Icefield and is known for its spectacular glacial views. The front of the glacier is adjacent to Mendenhall Lake, where calved icebergs float on the water and the blue-and-white ice walls reflect a captivating glow in the sunlight. Trails around the glacier pass through dense temperate rainforests, offering views of waterfalls, wildlife, and lakes formed by glacial meltwater. The glacier's retreat has been particularly noticeable in recent years, serving as a clear example of the impact of climate change on polar glaciers. It is also one of the most accessible glaciers in Southeast Alaska.Juneau · 17.1 km from downtown

Glacier Gardens Rainforest Adventure
Glacier Gardens Rainforest Adventure is a unique botanical garden-style outdoor experience in Juneau. After a 1984 landslide left behind a large number of uprooted spruce and hemlock trees, the owner creatively planted them upside down with their roots facing upward to form natural flower pots. These are filled with hanging begonias, fuchsias, and other flowers, creating stunning upside-down flower towers that were once named the most creative landmark in the United States. This rainforest botanical garden, covering approx. 20 hectares, offers guided tours that travel through lush temperate rainforests, past flower gardens, waterfalls, and rock gardens. Visitors can also take an open-air vehicle up Thunder Mountain to overlook the magnificent panoramic views of downtown Juneau and Mendenhall Valley, making it a unique attraction that combines natural scenery with creative art.Juneau · 10 km from downtown

When you go to Alaska, it is a must to visit the glacier in Juneau. The glacier is very spectacular and the scene is quite shocking. The area of the glacier is very large, just like a lake, which is amazing.
