"In the town of North Pole, located just 20 minutes from Fairbanks, going all out on Christmas decorations is a given. Stop by Santa Claus House where "it's Christmas every day" for photos with one of the world's largest Santa statues as well as the big man himself and his whole reindeer team. A tradition since 1952, Santa can be found at his workshop all year round, though he only works select days between January and September. Pick up some fudge, cookies, chocolates, and candies from the Sweet Shop, or to really impress friends and family back home, mail your letters, souvenirs, gifts, or holiday cards from here with a postmark from North Pole, Alaska." - Travel + Leisure Editors
