Victoria is the capital of the province of British Columbia, Canada, near the southern tip of Vancouver Island.
Victoria contains a perfect combination of the old and new Canada. Amidst the bustle of this little city, you can venture through the classical Brit architecture to the preserved Chinatown, or all the way back in time to the original First Nations (Aboriginal) culture. The colourful gardens and paintings are worth admiring, while the natural beauty just a short distance away from the town is simply breathtaking.
For the purposes of this guide, Victoria includes the nearby municipalities of Oak Bay, Saanich, Esquimalt and Brentwood Bay.
