Valdez is a city in Alaska, United States, situated at the head of Port Valdez on Prince William Sound. The city serves as an important seaport and is known as the southern terminus of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System.

Founded in 1898 during the Alaska Gold Rush, Valdez has a rich history marked by both natural disasters and resilience. The city was completely rebuilt in a new location following the devastating 1964 Good Friday earthquake.

Today, Valdez is recognized for its stunning natural surroundings, including the Chugach Mountains and Columbia Glacier, which have influenced its cultural development. The city maintains several historical sites and museums that document its gold rush era, Native Alaskan heritage, and the significant impact of the oil industry on the region. The community's culture is deeply connected to its maritime heritage, outdoor recreation, and the unique challenges and opportunities of life in coastal Alaska.
