Victoria's Parliament
Buildings An architectural feast - outside and inside too. Update this
link to:
-
The
Butchart Gardens World famous and rightly so. You have to go here, or be
ready with an answer to the folks back home when they ask, "Surely you
went to the Gardens?"
-
Fort Rodd Hill and
Fisgard Lighthouse.
Park-like setting with great ocean views. Great nautical and military
history, too!
-
Whale
Watching – check out not just our whales but all kinds of aquatic life
with one of the many outfits in town.
Prince of Whales,
Orca Spirit Adventures, Eagle
Wing Tours, Ocean Explorations
and more.
-
The
Empress Hotel – A Victoria centrepiece, full of history and wonderful
stories. Just down the street from the Admiral Inn.
-
Craigdarroch Castle An interesting taste of upper-crust Victoria history.
-
Miniature World. All the kids love it and adult guests are delighted too.
-
Royal
London Wax Museum. As good as an in-the-flesh look at a host of
celebrities.
-
Undersea
Gardens. Divers(e) aspects of ocean life.
-
Mineral
World Family Adventure: gem collecting, gold-panning, fossil digging.
-
Government House Where the Queen
stays when she visits!
-
Butterfly Gardens (Summer). You'll be tickled.
-
• Centre
of the Universe The biggest show on Earth!
-
Carillon
Tower - all the bells (no whistles) Just outside the Royal BC Museum, and
just down the street from the Admiral.
-
Government House and Gardens - a tranquil setting for a grand house and
garden.
-
Fisherman's wharf - fish, crabs etc for sale + Barb's Fish and Chips. A
short walk from the Admiral’s front door. (no specific link to Fisherman’s
wharf, just businesses around and in it. Maybe link to a new map page that
shows things like this, like Beacon Hill Park, Willows & Caddy Bay beach,
etc?)
-
University of Victoria - a beautiful campus, and gardens.
