The Neo-baroque buildings face north on Belleville Street and face the Inner Harbor. A statue of Queen Victoria stands on the front lawn as well as the British Columbia Legislature Cenotaph which commemorates the province's World War I, World War II, Korean War and Afghanistan War. At the top of the central dome is a gold-covered statue of Captain George Vancouver. Free guided tours of the facility are offered year-round too.

【Victoria Mile Zero Monument】Located in the picturesque Beacon Hill Park in British Columbia's capital, Mile 0 is one of the symbolic starting points of the Trans-Canada Highway on the Pacific Coast. The highway, conceived in the late 1940s and constructed between 1950 and 1971, was the longest uninterrupted highway in the world at the time of its completion. Spanning a whopping 4,860 miles (7,821 kilometers), it runs across all 10 of Canada’s provinces, crossing the Rocky Mountains and the wide-open prairies of central Canada.
