! 向阳兄的在这里：加拿大西部行之四－－维多利亚内港 (向阳兄别忘付广告费
)维多利亚市是加拿大BC省的首府. 内港是维多利亚市中心沿海地段, 也是维市的心脏. 岸边有许多建筑物沿海而造. 最有代表性两大建筑是 Fairmont 女皇饭店和省议会大楼.
注： 向阳兄从Johnson St. 挢(位置5) 到海底花园(水族馆,位置4) 作过专门报导.去看一看, 那才是专业水平! 向阳兄的在这里：加拿大西部行之四－－维多利亚内港 (向阳兄别忘付广告费)
我这里是小儿科. 有许多都是拿不出手的照片. 但是多一张多一景, 也就选上. 想砸的, 就扔砖头吧.
在沿着那条细红线走之前, 先看几张 从Johnson St. 桥(位置5) 到 女皇饭店(位置1)之间照片.
这就是著明的Fairmont 女皇饭店(位置1). 那条细红线的开始.
接下来是省议会大楼 (位置2)
这张照片出了问题. 因只有一张仍保留. 为什么?
这是一个士兵像. 纪念一战, 二战和朝鲜战争死亡士兵. 上面写着朝鲜战争加拿大死亡人数.
看了后心情很复杂. 这也许是这张照片拍坏的原因? 历史就是历史.
进去看看议会在讨论什么. 不执政就是反对党啦, 不管他们讨论什么, 都投一个反对票.
不让投票. 说是连反对党资格都不够. 反对党领工资, 着来我是加不进去了, 那就出来吧. 看看楼前广场有什么.
这是维多利亚女王的像
接下来是Port Angeles 轮渡码头.
轮渡码头把小路挡住了. 只好上大路. 这大路的景也不错
回到小路继续走
大炮都锁上, 不让用. 放个手指在上面都很难.

就住这旅馆

--- 顶啊! ---HOTEL HISTORY During the summer months, The Fairmont Empress in Victoria, British Columbia, serves Afternoon Tea to more guests than most hotels in London, England. More than 800 people per day come to enjoy a tradition that has been part of the hotel since she first opened her doors in 1908. The hotel has long been accustomed to entertaining Hollywood celebrities; Rita Hayworth, Jack Benny, Pat O'Brien, Douglas Fairbanks, Katherine Hepburn, Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Tallulah Bankhead, Roger Moore, John Travolta, Barbra Streisand, Harrison Ford and a host of others have passed through its lobby. Shirley Temple arrived accompanied by her parents amid rumors that she had fled from California because of kidnapping threats, a story borne from the presence of two huge bodyguards who took the room opposite hers and always left their door open. In 1965, there was much debate on whether to tear down what was becoming a faded, dowdy hotel, to make room for a more modern, functional high-rise hotel. One local newspaper warned that, 'Without this splendid relic of the Edwardian era, literally tens of thousands of tourists will never return. This is the Mecca, this is the heart and soul of the city.' The decision was announced on June 10, 1966: The Fairmont Empress would not be demolished. Instead she would embark on a $4 million campaign of renovation and refurbishment, playfully dubbed 'Operation Teacup.' The walls of the hotel contain stories of unusual guests and employees. In 1987, a woman wrote about her wonderful stay at The Fairmont Empress and asked if other guests had received a similar late night visitor: a little girl who had watched over her bed and then floated across the room. There are also the stories of an early 20th century maid, who shows up now and again on the sixth floor to help with the cleaning. Throughout its history, The Fairmont Empress has played host to kings, queens, movie stars and many famous people. In 1919, Edward, Prince of Wales, waltzed into the dawn in the Crystal Ballroom - an event considered by Victorians to be of such importance that almost 50 years later, the obituaries of elderly ladies would appear under headlines such as, 'Mrs. Thornley-Hall Dies. Prince of Wales Singled Her Out.' In 1989, over $45 million was spent in the Royal Restoration; all the guest rooms were renovated, and a health club, indoor swimming pool and guest reception were added. With an emphasis on craftsmanship, no attempt was made to give the hotel a new image. Instead, the goal was to restore The Fairmont Empress to her original elegance. The strong emotions The Fairmont Empress evokes in many of her guests and protectors is exemplified in the statement made by an irate gentleman, as workers raised the sign above the front entrance: 'Anyone who doesn't know this is The Empress shouldn't be staying here.' |
