Pioneer Park








The Christmas season would be incomplete without attending a traditional holiday bazaar. The bazaar we attended was part of Pioneer Park's 2010 Holiday Celebration which also included train rides with Santa and a fireworks display.

Pioneer Park bills itself as "Alaska's Only Historic Theme Park." After making the rounds on two floors of homespun arts and crafts, we walked around the grounds of the park. Although closed for the season, attractions include historic museums, dance halls and theaters, miniature golf, restaurants, shops, and Riverboat Nenana. This place is probably hopping during the warmer months.

We came back later in the day to watch fireworks. The display was excellent and, best of all, started at 5:30 pm.

  1. Great photos! It would be interesting to go back in the warmer months, like you mentioned, and see everything without the snow (and, perhaps, some more folks around?).
