Living in a Tourist City

Anonymous

A piece of our city I find fascinating is how Victoria adapts to the arrival of cruise ships. Every time one docks, thousands of visitors arrive—and it amazes me how smoothly the city adjusts.

The Inner Harbour area feels increasingly busy as the summer begins, but you can sense how Victoria’s design gently flexes to welcome these guests, without losing its rhythm. It’s a balancing act—being both a lived-in place and a temporary vacation for thousands—and Victoria pulls it off beautifully.
