QVB might be one of the most beautiful buildings I've ever seen. The exterior already looks amazing but when you walk inside, it’s so elegant that you can feel it really represents Queen Victoria herself. I love literally everything I saw, such as the fences, stained glass windows, fences, domes, stairs, pillars, arches etc. There are mostly clothing, jewellery, accesories stores, and several pastry cafes on ground and upper levels. The lower ground floors are connected to Town Hall station, The Galeries, and Westfield on the other side. Victoria’s Basement is not just an ultimate kitchenware store but also sells a variety of confectionery, such as pistachio related products, different kinds of Dubai chocolate, biscuits, and sweets at reasonable prices. If I live in Sydney, I would like to visit this place several times a week, explore every cafe and but more dubai chocolates.

The QVB is one of Sydney's most beautiful buildings and a real icon of the city. It has so much character and charm, and I'm glad it was preserved instead of being demolished decades ago. Walking through it always feels special, with its stunning architecture and lively atmosphere. The basement level is especially handy, connecting through to Myer and Pitt Street Mall, making it an easy part of getting around the CBD. There's always a great energy here with plenty of people, shops, and cafés. Whether you're shopping or just passing through, it's well worth a visit.

A beautiful, historic, iconic landmark with numerous modern restaurants and shops. There's something to see on every floor. There are beautiful clocks, an old elevator, and a public piano for anyone to play. The light rail station is right in front of the building. Definitely worth a visit!

What an absolutely stunning building! The architecture is just breathtaking, and there's so much to explore. My partner and I had such a lovely time wandering around. It's truly a must-visit spot. The atmosphere is great, and you can easily spend hours here.

My wife and I had a fantastic weekday visit to the Queen Victoria Building, and going on a weekday is definitely the way to go if you want to avoid the crowds! The historic architecture is absolutely stunning from the beautiful stained glass to the grand dome, it feels like stepping back in time. There are plenty of great places for shopping across multiple levels and an excellent variety of options to sit down and have a nice meal. As a wonderful bonus, we stumbled upon a free photo booth on the second floor that day, which gave us a fun little keepsake to remember our trip. It was a really nice, relaxed experience, and we highly recommend checking it out. #visitsrilankaash #visitasutraliaash #ashfootprints #srilankaelle #elleproducts #visitsrilanka #visitasutralia #queenvictoriabuilding #qvb #sydney #nsw
