2023 Victoria Trip - Day 6

Gallery (80 images): 2023 Victoria Trip - Chinatown & Butchart Gardens

On our last day in Victoria, Emily and I first walked over to Chinatown and did a bit of exploring, including visiting the Chinese Canadian Museum, which was quite fascinating. The narrow brick lined alleys with lots of paper lanterns were wonderful and very photogenic! It turned out to be a rather lengthy walk we did that morning and early afternoon, totalling over 12 km. After finding a coffee shop and relaxing for a bit, we headed back to our B&B, grabbed the car and then headed up to The Butchart Gardens, where we spent another few hours walking around and taking lots of photos before having a quick dinner and making our way to the Swartz Bay ferry to head back to the mainland. It was a long day with lots of walking but the weather was absolutely beautiful and it was a great way to end our trip to Victoria!
