With its strip malls and fast-food restaurants, Fairbanks appears a bit functional on first glance.

Next up on the itinerary: see the interesting displays at Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum, view the masterpieces at Two Street Gallery LLC, pause for some serene contemplation at Immaculate Conception Parish, and learn more about the world around you at University of Alaska Museum of the North.
