Victoria, British Columbia, this place is unforgettable. This is one place were I really enjoyed my holiday. I think this is one place that everyone would feel the same way, unforgettable. Blessed with parks, natural and water scenery's, this place is the epitome of charming. From Vancouver there are several ferries that you can take to Vancouver. I was coming from Washington State so I jumped on the Port Angeles ferry. Load up your car if your driving one and it takes approximately one and half hours to reach Victoria, which is the southernmost tip of Vancouver Island.
Once you reach Victoria you will see why it is known as the “City of Gardens.” It is a super quaint and picturesque, but yet a sophisticated city . Victoria is a seaside city with it's bustling inner harbour and breathtaking views everywhere you look. When you arrive you will feel like you have been transported to England. Victoria has a distinctly British feel to it; pretty gardens, double-decker buses, guards in uniform, Parliament buildings, the cathedrals. Victoria has all the characteristics of England with a twist of other ethnic influences.
There are many tourism attraction and landmark such as the Fairmont Empress Hotel, the Royal British Columbia Museum, Christ Church Cathedral, Chinatown, Victoria Butterfly Garden and many other gardens, including the Pacific Undersea Gardens, catch a whale watching tour, and a must the strikingly beautiful Parliament buildings. This is a picture of me taking in front of the Fairmont Empress Hotel or more commonly named, just the Empress Hotel. It is one of the oldest and most famous hotels in Victoria. A must is to stop in the Empress Hotel for some tea.
Whether coming from Washington State or Vancouver jump on that ferry and take a ride over to Victoria. You will be completely impressed and permanently infatuated with Victoria, and it is one of the worlds premier destination cities to visit.
