The city of Victoria in the Canadian province of British Columbia is a very photogenic city. Wherever you look, you’ll see the remnants of a bygone era that began around the mid-1800s when the Hudson’s Bay Company founded a fur-trading post in this corner of Vancouver Island. There were several gold rushes in the province, and the port city saw its population increase as a consequence. The British influence on the city’s architecture is unmistakable, and for a moment, time seems to stand still when one walks down its streets.
