About Halifax

The provincial capital of Nova Scotia has come a long way since its founding in 1749 as a naval base. Today it’s not so much about warships but rather a trendy urban spot that has more pubs and clubs than almost any other city in Canada. Guests can spend the day exploring the city’s many museums and learning about its history, or wander on the waterfront and busy downtown area to take in the sights and sounds that include ship traffic, open-air eateries, tree-lined streets, statues and memorials.
