Shopping in Victoria

Posted on February 19, 2015October 16, 2022 by David Barker

My favourite place to shop in Victoria is Renaissance Books in Bastion Square, a used and antiquarian bookstore by the inner harbour. However, in deference to my wife, who has more “normal” shopping habits, I thought I’d share photos of destinations other than book stores.
