Situated on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, this intimate, sophisticated seaside “City of Gardens” has become a welcoming haven for visitors from all over the world. With its carefully cultivated Anglo airs—complete with double-decker buses and stately Parliament building—the British Columbian capital boasts a courtly pace and a deeply rooted 150-year history. Among Victoria’s other charms: a splendid natural harbor, a climate classified as Mediterranean, the renowned Royal British Columbia Museum, the iconic Empress Hotel, a thriving Chinatown, and a flower-bedecked downtown.
