Walk among the flowers in Victoria for FREE

Tourist flock every year to Victoria, and a great number of them head up highway 17A to make a horticultural pilgrimage to Butchart Gardens.  However, Victoria already has some of the most beautiful landscaped walks that you do not need a pass to enjoy.

I remember being taken as a child to Butchart Gardens and I will my new impressions of it in the future. Yet at this time of the year, why spend the money on an admission pass when there are so many flowers and trees in bloom? Sure there may not be the Latin names and descriptions to go with wild flowers, but if you look for botanical life you will find it growing in the strangest of places.  It is fantastic.

These are photos taken during a half hour walk along the edge of Esquimalt.  Come and visit, it is all here for you to enjoy.
