Visit Halifax
|
Halifax - one of the world's perfect places. With over 400 km of dramatic coastline, white sand beaches, and one of the world's largest natural harbours, its no wonder life here revolves around the sea. But there's so much more. Steeped in history, rich in culture, and refreshingly cosmopolitan. For over 250 years Halifax has been a world class place. Premiere meeting and convention facilities. Fine dining. Great music. Fashionable boutiques, craftshops. Cobblestone walkways. The Halifax Regional Municipality is an international urban center with a rural cachet. It bustles and thrives with all the energy and amenities of a capital city but within minutes of the city's core, Halifax offers the small coastal villages, country charm, and wilderness for which Nova Scotia is known. It's so beautiful you won't want to leave. Start your tour of Nova Scotia and Canada's Atlantic Coast with Halifax - Beautiful One Day... Perfect.
