A day on foot is ample time to see Victoria, one of the smallest capitals in the world. Located on Mahe, one of the Seychelles' 115 granite and coral islands, Victoria is the republic's business and cultural hub. At its center sits the Victoria Clocktower, a national monument reminiscent of London's "Big Ben" that has kept ticking since 1903, unaffected by the modern glass and concrete development around it. Visit the local art galleries and craft markets to soak up the city's friendly charm.

This is worth a visit at anytime during the day though the spectacle is better in the morning, and Saturday morning is when you can see the most stalls. The produce on sale is fish, fruits, vegetables, spices, some crafts, local honey and preserves. You can go to look and take pictures or buy some fruit to go along with during the day. It takes at most an hour to see everything. If you want to take local products home be a bit picky and ask who made them and where, they all have a story. Probably the best pictures you will get will be the fish and octopus.

It is a temple for the Hindu religion. It is a spiritual place and the most beautiful place in Seychelles. It is open to all and if you happen to be during the month of January you will get to see some of the prayers, sacrifice and rituals done during thaipoosam a festival for the Lord murugan.

The miniature Big Ben Clock tower is in the middle of a roundabout in Victoria and I must say every time we drove through that roundabout we had a good time and many laughs. Definitely worth doing a couple drive bys as it is a beautiful little Clock Tower.
