  Russian traders and soldiers founded Sitka, and the town's onion domes and old Russian Orthodox cemeteries still give a nod to its Russian origins. Sitka is located in the southeastern part of the state, and many fishing lodges are located in and around the town to provide anglers a variety of choices in lodging and amenities.
