"The world-renowned Butchart Gardens, about a 30-minute drive from downtown Victoria, is a must-see.
Wander through 55 acres of meticulously landscaped gardens, including the Sunken Garden, Rose Garden, and the tranquil Japanese Garden (my favourite).
It takes approximately three hours to wander around the entire garden, but many people spend all day! So, if you are hungry, eat lunch at their onsite restaurant (it's pretty decent).
If you have extra time to spare, the nearby Butterfly Gardens is worth a visit. "
