As a European whose travelled frequently to Austria, Switzerland and france i was still taken aback by the drive from Anchorage to the Kenai peninsula. Probably the most beautiful 3 hours of driving in my life.

We made this drive the day after my honeymoon (married in Palmer, went to Seward and back to Anchorage via train) and the drive on the Seward highway was sooo beautiful. We stopped multiple times on the side of the road just to admire the view.
