Details About Halifax
Destinations » Atlantic Seaboard » Eastern Canada » Halifax
The capital of Nova Scotia, Halifax is a charming mix of old and new. This is readily apparent in a walk around the area known as the Historic Properties. Enjoy the splendor of one of the finest harbors in the world by taking a water tour of the city.
Attractions
One of the city's most attractive areas is the Historic Properties Development, located along the waterfront. The charming early 19th-century wood and stone buildings here have all been fully restored. And the cobblestone streets and long boardwalks are now lined with a wonderful array of boutiques, cafés, and pubs.
Activities
- Relax on a drive through the beautiful Nova Scotian countryside to the moody, weathered village of Peggy's Cove. Walk along the rocks to view the craggy coastline with its bold glacier-formed outcroppings of granite and its impressive lighthouse. Then drive through the softer South Shore area back to Halifax, and enjoy another view of the city.
- Take a historical and anecdote-filled tour through the streets of Halifax. Explore the hilltop fortress and the Citadel, and stroll through the beautiful Victorian-style public gardens.
- Explore the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia's extensive collection, with over 2,000 permanent works.
Currency
In Canada, the Canadian dollar (CAD) is the official currency. Credit cards are widely accepted and often offer a good exchange rate. In all of Canada, a 7% Goods & Services Tax (GST) must be paid on all transportation, accommodation, restaurant meals, and just about anything else you purchase, right down to a pack of gum.
