When Swans Hotel was built in 1913 it was as an extension of the grain business developed by the Peden Brothers and carried on in what is now Market Square. In the photo above you can see Swans Hotel on the far left. The photo is of the "front" of Market Square that faces the harbour. Market square is now home to many shops, boutiques and restaurants. The interior of the square (below) is used for many different kinds of events throughout the year though it is pretty quiet in the winter. Click HERE to visit the Market Square website.

Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

Funny lately I see a lot of excellent night shots. In the film area something just reserved for professional photographers. Yes there is a great progress in photography since the transition to digital. I like it.
I always loved visiting Market Square. They had a pretty large bead shop down on the bottom floor. Is that still there?
Beautifully lit at night!
Lovely in the evening! Love this place too!
