 The
Abkhazi Garden is an exquisite heritage home and garden located in Victoria,
British Columbia, a city known for its wonderful gardens. Prince and Princess
Abkhazi began creating their garden in 1946. This was the year they married and
settled in Victoria, after living separate lives touched by both privilege and
tragedy. They immediately began to develop their one-acre property, and
continued to maintain and improve the garden throughout their lives together. |

Abkhazi Garden Review
|
 My
husband and I stumbled upon this place and it was such a treat. We didn't have
enough time for Butchart Gardens as we had to catch a 3pm ferry, and I was
feeling a bit disappointed about that, but then we found this gem and it was
lovely to experience. Towards the end of the gardens, there is a house where
they serve tea, scones and various light lunch options. Plus there is a great
gift shop. I would highly recommend. |
