Nestled in the eastern coast of Canada, Halifax is the capital of Nova Scotia, known for its rich maritime history and natural beauty. This vibrant city, resting on one of the world's largest natural harbors, is recognized for the iconic waterfront boardwalk which houses shops, restaurants, and the historic Pier 21. Halifax, the gateway to Atlantic Canada, offers a blend of modern urban living with traditional Canadian charm. As the home to several significant historical sites like the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, it caters to history enthusiasts, while the abundant parks, gardens, and the scenic Peggy's Cove appeal to nature lovers. Whether soaking in the local music scene, savoring fresh seafood, or exploring the historic downtown, Halifax promises a unique Canadian experience.

Halifax feels overall very safe, very nice people. But if you don’t have a car, you can see everything in a weekend. It’s a small city. Best if you can go travel around Nova Scotia. Also best to come here during summer.

I took a tall ship cruise around Halifax bay with my family, it was extremely enjoyable and I highly recommend it.
Afterwards we went for a very nice meal at Baton rouge restaurant, a bit expensive but Canada is quite expensive.
