One of the world's smallest capitals, Victoria located on the island of Mahe is a mere 20.1sqkms in size; however, in terms of attractions and experiences, the place packs quite a punch. For loads of colour and local flavour head over to the Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market, where you can buy exotic spices, tropical fruits and a range of local souvenirs; and tour the Hindu Temple cutting a majestic pose amongst the azure blue sky. Visit the Seychelles National Botanical Gardens home to a range of endemic plants amongst which regal orchids promise to awe. La Domus, built in 1934, is another historical attraction which sits next to the Cathedral of Our Lady of Immaculate Conception.
