<\/figure><\/div>\n\nHalifax is the capital of Nova Scotia and the largest city in Canada’s Atlantic provinces. It has a rich maritime history linked to its advantageous location and status as one of the finest natural harbors in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n The main attraction of the city is the Halifax Citadel (“Fort George”). This is a classic star-shaped fort, located on top of the hill of the same name. When it was first built, it offered an ideal strategic view of the harbor. Today it houses a museum and a small garrison, which is used mainly for solemn ceremonies.<\/span><\/p>\n The embankment with a lot of historical buildings, shops and restaurants is one of the most pleasant places for a walk. There are many ships in the harbor, and sightseeing boat tours start from here.<\/span><\/p>\n Snow-white Clock Tower – One of the most remarkable city symbols. The tower consists of three tiers, and its upper part has the shape of an irregular octagon. It is built on top of a rectangular squat ground floor. The whole structure stands on the slope of the Citadel Hill, facing the present day Brunsvik Street.<\/span><\/p>\n The collection of the Atlantic Maritime Museum includes artifacts related to the Titanic disaster and the 1917 explosion. The ship “Arcadia” is moored in the harbor, a ship of the hydrographic service, launched in 1913 and mothballed. Before the “Arcadia” from the museum building you need to walk a little. In addition, HMS Sackville, the last Flower-class escort corvette from World War II convoys, stands next to the museum.<\/span><\/p>\n In Halifax there is a beautiful city park, amazing in that here you can find purely southern plants like pineapple or coffee.<\/span><\/p>\n The Art Gallery of Nova Scotia has an excellent selection of works by local artists working in folk, hyper-realistic or aboriginal styles.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Halifax is the capital of Nova Scotia and the largest city in Canada’s Atlantic provinces.
