Victoria is the capital city of Seychelles, located on Mahe Island. It is also known as the smallest African capital. The city is the perfect place to get a glimpse of the daily life of Seychellois, and the Creole culture.

Victoria has an old part that has narrow streets with colonial buildings. The new part of Victoria has tropical gardens and broader streets. The city is beautifully designed and painted with colourful facades, balustrades and shutters. Explore the town's old colonial buildings including a replica of London's clock tower, savour the Creole cuisine or get a lively experience at Sir Selwyn Clarke Market. Victoria has two main town centres - one around-the-clock tower and one at the Sir Selwyn Clarke Market. 

If you love walking, you can easily cover this city in a day. If you want to get close to its unignorable charm, make sure that you visit the local craft market and art galleries. Being the capital city, Victoria is the cultural and business hub of the nation. The main airport of Seychelles, Seychelles International Airport, is also located in Victoria. The city is small enough to be explored on foot. Buses, metered taxis and bicycles on rent are also available.
