Victoria Canada is the capital of British Columbia and is located on Vancouver Island.
Known as the City of Flowers, Victoria is a favorite spot for holidays and vacations.
And because there are so many wonderful Victoria attractions and Victoria BC events, there is something for everyone to enjoy here.
Perhaps the most famous attractions in Victoria are the Empress Hotel and the Astronomical Society of Victoria. Make sure you get to see both while you’re here…

The Best of Victoria British Columbia And the South Coast
If you enter the Island by Victoria, one of the first things you will see is the beautiful Victoria Harbor.
The photo above shows Victoria Harbor at night, and, if you look below, you’ll see a photo of the harbor in the daytime.
There is a walkway around the Harbor, and it is incredibly beautiful during the spring and summer months when it is just covered with gorgeous flowers.
