The Museum of Northern British Columbia contains displays illustrating the culture of the Tsimshian and Haida nations of indigenous peoples, and also organizes tours of archaeological sites in the Prince Rupert area. The role of indigenous peoples in the salmon cannery industry is featured at the North Pacific Cannery Village Museum in Port Edward, a short drive to the south on nearby Watson Island. Within the city, a number of sites illustrate Prince Rupert's history; these include a station of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway that has been restored and converted into a railway museum, and a Japanese fishing boat. Self-guided walking tours of the city and guided visits to industrial facilities such as the Prince Rupert grain terminal are also available. Beyond the built-up city, natural history features such as Butze Rapids on the Skeena River and Oliver Lake Stunted Pine Forest also attract many tourists.
