Prince Rupert, BC, Canada

You can probably tell that Prince Rupert, British Columbia is a little more laid back, less bustling than other places, thanks to its nickname: “The City of Rainbows.” It may have more to do with the climate, but the name still fits, with welcoming, photo-worthy natural sights that even the frequently moist weather can’t dampen. It’s easy to be this beautiful with a cast of local wildlife like Prince Rupert has, with grizzly bears, humpback whales and eagles making up just a few of the stars. The local museums are another spot to get a feel for the area, whether it’s art, culture or, say, railroads you’re into. And definitely stop into the local shops, plus restaurants that are proud to serve up fresh-caught local delicacies.
