This is a quick video of walking through Ketchikan, Alaska. Ketchikan is the state's southeasternmost major settlement. Downtown Ketchikan is a National Historic District. Incorporated on August 25, 1900. Ketchikan is located on Revillagigedo Island, so named in 1793 by Captain George Vancouver. • Ketchikan is named after Ketchikan Creek, which flows through the town, emptying into the Tongass Narrows a short distance southeast of its downtown. Ketchikan comes from the Tlingit name for the creek, Kitschk-hin, the meaning of which is unclear. It may mean the river belonging to Kitschk ; other accounts claim it means Thundering Wings of an Eagle . In modern Tlingit this name is rendered as Kichx̱áan. • We walked up to Creek St. and then took the tram up to Cape Fox Lodge. We then walked down to the City Park and then back to the ship. • #ketchikan #alaska #hollandamerica #portmonkeys • Note: At 5:13 the caption reads: We have walked about 'fo blocks' now. There is an outlet mall here with restrooms . • It should say 'four blocks'. • *The mistake was a glitch in my computer.
