1. Public Gardens Park
So very very lovely. The Halifax Public Gardens are one of the last formal Victorian public gardens in North America. Located right next to the downtown area the garden makes for a perfect respite from urbanity and takes you into a world that could…More »
2. Halifax Alehouse

8. The Cat High Speed Car Ferry
The CAT is not your average animal It's a massive beast of a vessel that transports cars and walk-on passengers from Portland or Bar Harbor, Maine to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. It's one part utility transportation ferry and one part tour boat.
