All about Victoria

Victoria lives up to its nickname as Canada’s City of Gardens: Green spaces and manicured parks thrive in the seaside capital of British Columbia, where the nation’s mildest weather makes outdoor excursions popular year-round. Hikers, cyclists, and runners find a lot to love in the little city center as well as the surrounding wild areas of Vancouver Island, known for temperate rainforest and driftwood-strewn beaches. Victoria balances its rugged side with a stately downtown famous for a blend of cultures and visible British influences — think double-decker buses, pubs serving fish and chips, and plenty of buildings that mimic castles.

What are the top things to do in Victoria?

Inner Harbour

The Inner Harbour area is the primary district for sightseeing in Victoria. Here you find many of the capital’s most-photographed landmarks including the impressive neo-baroque British Columbia Parliament Buildings. The acclaimed Royal British Columbia Museum is notable for its exhibits on First Nations culture as well as the native plant gardens on its grounds.
