The predicted rain held off for the time we spent in Halifax. There was a 2.5 hours window for me to set out exploring. I decided to revisit the Public Gardens since it had been well over a year since I last walked the winding paths.
I was immediately struck by how lush the gardens were. The Halifax Gardens is Canada’s oldest Victorian Garden with numerous trees well over 150!years old.
It’s not difficult to enjoy several hours exploring the well laid out garden. Despite several tour groups and it being lunch hour, with many enjoying their lunch on of the benches, the park never felt crowded. The current feature plantings are the dahlia beds.
While I expected more dahlia display beds my time at the gardens did not disappoint.
Make sure to stop into the Halifax Public Gardens the next time you come to the city!
