07 Victoria, British Columbia

The waterfront area found in historic Victoria and its Inner Harbour is a feast for the eyes. The famous Fairmont Empress Hotel, built in 1908, overlooks the harbor. Visitors can enjoy high tea there in the afternoons and explore the collection of miniature models of castles, historical events, and dollhouses at the adjoining Miniature World exhibit. Another favorite destination for travelers in Victoria is the Butchart Gardens in Brentwood Bay. This 50-acre garden’s first plantings date back to 1904. Visitors will enjoy the lush green lawns, fountains, pools, and a fragrant variety of colorful, exotic plants.
