## Parking for Fan Tan Alley in Downtown Victoria

Fan Tan Alley has no car park of its own, so drivers need to leave the vehicle nearby and walk to the entrance at 17 Fan Tan Alley. The Centennial Square Parkade is the nearest recommended option, located a block north of the alley (datespark.ca).

The Centennial Square Parkade costs $15 a day from 8am to 8pm, with free overnight parking and [free parking](https://www.parksy.com/parking-near-me) on Sundays (datespark.ca). This arrangement suits a visit that combines the alley with Downtown attractions, although the walk from the parkade should be allowed for before a timed booking or meal.

## Busy Times and Street Parking Near Fan Tan Alley

Downtown parking zones and parkades operate with paid parking hours from 8 am to 8 pm (downtownvictoria.ca). The rule applies across the central parking area, so a short visit during the daytime should be planned as a paid stay rather than an assumed free stop.

Victoria parkades are free every Sunday, on holidays and daily after 8 p.m. (victoria.ca). Those periods can ease the pressure around the alley, while daytime visits to the Downtown area are more likely to coincide with paid parking demand. The site connects with Victoria’s Chinatown, where a compact alley and surrounding shops make finding a legal stopping place especially important.
