Craigdarroch Castle
Industrialist Robert Dunsmuir built the labyrinthine 39-room Craigdarroch Castle with his giant coal mining profits, but he died just a few months before completion, leaving his mourning wife to take up residence alone. One of the city's postcard landmarks, the multiturreted property is an elegant, wood-lined stone mansion with delightful period architecture and antique-packed rooms.

Fan Tan Alley
Small but perfectly formed, Fisgard St is the center of Victoria's compact Chinatown. One of Canada's oldest Asian districts, it's fronted by a towering red gate that looms over sprawling fruit and vegetable stores and the po-faced ancients meditating outside family-run restaurants. Twinkling neon signs add a dash of nighttime excitement, while Fan Tan Alley - a narrow passageway between Fisgard St and Pandora Ave - draws daytime explorers.
