After a free breakfast at our hotel, we headed to our first stop of the day, the
Halifax Citadel National Historic Site in the heart of Halifax, Nova Scotia. The citadel is set majestically upon an expansive hill overlooking the city, and is part of a series of forts – each one showcasing changes over time to it's defenses, each significantly different than its predecessor – that protected Halifax Harbour from 1749 to 1906. The citadel was so strategically important that it was rebuilt three times yet it was never once attacked. Here are some photos from our visit.
