One of the world's great natural harbour and one with a very strategic location, Halifax is the capital of Nova Scotia. This city has a very important reputation in the World War I and II and is a very busy Atlantic seaport and economic and cultural hub of eastern Canada presently. This city is famous for no red lights on the roads and reputation of the pedestrian as king.

As far as the tourist places which are surely not to be missed, they include the Halifax Citadel which is an old fort on a hill and is a national historic site now home to a museum. Pier 21, which is a historic waterfront that has been now converted to a modern museum, is also not to be missed. On the downtown waterfront is located the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic which has artefacts related to the sinking of the Titanic and the 1917 explosion in Halifax. St. Matthew's Church, the oldest United Church in Canada, St. Paul's Church, and Art Gallery of Nova Scotia are some other places worth watching.

Many events take place the entire year round to keep people entertained. The Busker Festival in august which is for the street performers along the waterfront is a mix of amazing acts, funny, and grand. Music and stalls are a hang over for the people for a long time.
