From local business to big-box stores, Prince George has it all. Local stores stock specialty items while the big-box stores focus on the essentials. These big box stores are located just outside of the downtown core. Contrary to the norm, the downtown core gets quiet around 5pm as the shops begin to close. If you’re looking to enjoy the best of what Prince George has to offer, it’s recommended that you have a car.

Some of the attractions you may like to enjoy include the Prince George Symphony Orchestra or theatrical performances. Art enthusiasts would enjoy the Two Rivers Gallery which is located in a beautiful building and holds modern art from across Canada. If you’re looking for educational fun with the family, check out The Exploration Place. Here you will find interactive and historic exhibits that focus on science and the earth.

For those who are interested in the railway and its contribution to BC, go to the Central BC Railway & Forestry Museum! Along with the British Columbia territory, comes incredible outdoor activities. There’s freshwater fishing in the lakes and rivers, hiking trails and cross-country skiing. Become a part of the royal city and move into the Prince George community!
