Halifax Happenings

Halifax Regional Municipality

Exciting, Eclectic, Romantic. Halifax Regional Municipality (Atlantic Canada’s largest city) deftly blends the past with the present to produce a skyline dotted with elegant 18th- and 19th-century architecture alongside ultra-modern towers of glass and steel.

Halifax is perfect for exploring on foot, with tree-lined streets, international restaurants, galleries, libraries and museums. Inviting sidewalk cafes beckon you to while away a few hours amid park-like, waterfront, and historic settings. Then there's the backdrop of the bustling harbour, which entertains ship traffic from every corner of the globe.

Dartmouth is most appreciated for the fact that its developed areas have not eliminated the presence of nature, but have worked hard to compliment it. This is what has made it so popular with nature lovers, cyclists, walkers and paddlers. Aptly called the "City of Lakes," Dartmouth’s 23 lakes provide opportunities for kayaking, windsurfing, canoeing and swimming. Dartmouth features many parks, walking trails and easy access to the unspoiled coastal beauty of the Eastern Shore.
