About Victoria

Victoria has the mildest climate in Canada and is called The Garden City. The wild beauty of the Pacific coast and the adventure of the great outdoors are within the city limits. Ocean and mountain vistas will follow you wherever you go. Victoria remembers its colourful history with First Nations totem poles, heritage architecture and afternoon tea, and bustles with the energy of a university town, having the University of Victoria within its limits. The Garden City is a year-round tourism destination that offers a friendly, safe haven for all visitors. Getting here is easy, and, once here, you will feel a million miles away. With a clean environment and charming ambience, it is no surprise that Victoria, BC is one of the world’s favorite destinations. See some photos of Victoria in the University of Victoria Photo Gallery.
