The building has a series of domes and domelets with exquisite stained glass windows and extensive wood panelling throughout.
The building accomodates a series of royal paintings.
The building is a major attraction for both visitors and residents and is open every day. Shops with Old-Worlde shopfronts are located on three levels and here you will find some of the most interesting shopping in Sydney, shops such as New Guinea Arts, which has a remarkable array of native artefacts from New Guinea
You can buy almost anything from QVB. Some stores are relatively expensive and some are not. There are all the major Brand name clothing stores and coffee shops.

 Queen Victoria by BorneoGrrl
Special attractions include the Royal Clock, a unique, 6-metre long timepiece built in the shape of Balmoral Castle by the Queen's clockmaker and the keeper of 'Big Ben' in London. Replicas of the crown jewels created by the crown jeweller's craftsmen, can also be seen on the top gallery.
Some stores sell very nice italian suits in the Gianni Versace store for prices less than in South East Asia. On sale, a suit would start from AUD500 (not a GV suit but still Italian). I found a number of designer stores here e.g Feragammo, Guess & local designers. There are also some nice outlets selling Australian arts & crafts where you can get a special something for your loved ones
A lot

 QVB by martin_nl
If you want to purchase some of his work but think it's a tad too expensive you might want to consider buying some souvenir books, that are hardcover and pretty cheap too. But filled with loads of memories of your trip.
A small photo 50 cm wide is about 500 AUD. His books are about 12 AUD. Leave a Comment

 An old picture of the Queen
Victoria Building. by Jerelis
The Queen Victoria Building is an outstanding example of Byzantine architecture, which occupies an entire city block, was built in 1898 to replace the original Sydney Markets. Later it accommodated a concert hall and the City Library. In 1984 it was completely refurbished as a shopping centre, with more than 200 shops, a few bars and eateries. With its series of domes and domelets with exquisite stained glass windows and extensive wood panelling throughout it is a curiosity and therefore worth a visit.
