🇨🇦✨ Victoria Inner Harbour – The Most British City in North America

#summervacay Visiting Victoria, Canada during Victoria Day couldn’t be more symbolic. Held on the last Monday before May 25th, this public holiday honors Queen Victoria and marks the unofficial start of summer in Canada — especially in British Columbia. And what better place to celebrate than Victoria, the province’s charming capital city? Located on Vancouver Island, just a scenic 2.5-hour ferry ride from Vancouver, Victoria is known as the warmest city in Canada — making it a highly desirable retirement haven and a gem for travelers seeking elegance, comfort, and culture. 🛳️🌸 With strong British influences and a deep sense of history, Victoria blends the grace of old-world Europe with the vibrancy of Canada’s west coast. Often hailed as the “most British city in North America”, it’s also known as the “Garden City”, “Canada’s most romantic city”, and one of the “world’s most beautiful small cities.” The Inner Harbour, right in the heart of downtown, is the city’s crown jewel. Surrounded by grand buildings like the BC Parliament and the Fairmont Empress Hotel, it offers postcard-worthy views, street performers, cafes, whale-watching tours, and serene seaside strolls. In Victoria, you don’t just sightsee — you savor life at a slower, more refined pace. #victoriabc #innerharbour #britishcolumbia #victoriaday #mostbritishcity #canadatravel #retirementhaven #gardencity #northamericahiddengem
