    The Parliament Building at night in Victoria, BC, Canada.
    The Empress Hotel at night in Victoria, BC, Canada from across the Inner Harbor. The Empress opened in 1908 and currently has 477 rooms and four restaurants.
    The Tiffany-style stained glass roof soars in the rotunda of the Palm Room at the Empress Hotel in Victoria, BC, Canada. The roof had caved in during a snowstorm in the 1960's and covered over. It was rediscovered while a $45 million remodel of the hotel was taking place in 1989 and restored to its former glory with period glass gathered from all over the world. A whisper is magnified many times over while standing standing directly under the roof, and a normal conversation can be heard by shop keepers quite some distance away.
