The same afternoon tea as the queen on 520.

Fairmont Empress Hotel British afternoon tea has become popular worldwide in an elegant way. On 520, have the same afternoon tea as the queen and feel that life has become elegant and temperamental instantly! The most famous of the Fairmont Empress Hotel in Victoria, Canada, is the afternoon tea praised by Queen Elizabeth. More than 100,000 people come to enjoy it every year. Thick carpets, exquisite walnut furniture, soft floral sofas... The sugar cubes, milk utensils and cutlery on the table are all shiny silverware, and the tea cups and tea trays are also special items with the crown mark of the Empress Hotel.... There are eight teas on the tea menu, and we chose the first item Empress Blend. This is a black tea specially made by the hotel when the queen stayed here, and it has become the signature tea of the hotel. Victoria Empress Hotel, politicians and celebrities from various countries like to stay in this hotel when they come to BC. The room rate is a bit expensive, but it is also a place that must be tried once in a lifetime. It was built in 1908 and has a history of more than 100 years. The hotel was originally built by reclamation and the cost was huge. Reflective hardwood floors, velvet furniture, carved window frames and beams, the fortress-like building is full of imperial style. The building is tall and exquisite, with green vines climbing up the wall to the roof. Every time the Queen of England comes to Victoria, she must stay here, and the hotel also has a passage and suite for the queen. For us in 2021, the rooms of the Empress Hotel are a bit cramped. After all, it was built more than 100 years ago, and it is completely understandable. Therefore, I strongly recommend the exquisite afternoon tea facing the sea Outside now;
