Lake Hood Seaplane Base in Anchorage, Alaska.

There is a Lake Hood in downtown Anchorage, and the lakeside is full of seaplanes of various models. It is said to be the largest seaplane airport in the world, with 800 small seaplanes parked and taking off and landing. In addition to private seaplanes, commercial seaplanes are also available. Alaska is vast and sparsely populated, with islands, lakes, swamps, permafrost, snow-capped mountains, rivers, streams, and cliffs everywhere. Many places are difficult to reach by car, so taking a small plane is a good choice. It is said that the number of private small planes in Alaska ranks first in the United States.
