The Royal London Wax Museum is located on the Inner Harbour in downtown Victoria. It is directly across the harbour from the Empress Hotel and across the street from the Parliament Buildings. The Wax Museum is open year-round, and exhibits over 300 life-size wax figures.
Some of the wax figures available for viewing include many ex-Presidents of the United States, Jackie O, Queen Elizabeth, Charles and Diana, semi-nude Cleopatra, Henry VIII and his wives, the seven dwarfs, Jesus Christ and the entire cast of Last Supper! There is also a Chamber of Horrors, but this is not an area for small children or the faint of heart!
Allow an hour for your visit.
