Halifax, Nova Scotia - Canada HD Travel Channel
Halifax, the capital of the province of Nova Scotia forms together with Dartmouth and Bedford a coherent settlement area for well over a quarter million people. Dartmouth and Halifax are separated by the harbor and since the mid 18th century connected by a ferry.
In addition, two major toll bridges span the bay.
Since time immemorial, Halifax is a major port and thus it is not surprising that the largest military installation in Canada, the base of the Atlantic Fleet and the headquarters of the Coast Guard are settled here.
In the center of the harbor front you see the restored brick buildings and warehouses, the so-called Historic Properties. Together with the disused harbor buildings, they serve today as pubs as well as shopping malls, museums and galleries for a solvent customers. The exterior of the whole complex is true to the original. The Historic Properties are a much-visited attraction for tourists. Here one can watch the ships as well as glass blowers at work.
In the shopping arcades, the usual souvenirs are offered to the tourists. Those who seek patiently can find some rarities.
Always present is the emblem of the town, the bell tower set up at the beginning of the 19th century in front of the citadel on behalf of Prince Edward, Duke of Kent. It should teach the citizens more punctuality.
The casino with an attached hotel next to the Historic Properties dominates the northern part of the harbor front.
The historic Alexander Keith Brewery, another masterfully restored part of the leisure mile dominates the southern part.
Sometimes you can see the sailing ship Bluenose II in the harbor. In the early 20th century, the original Bluenose held the international fishing trophy as the fastest North American sailing ship in its class for eighteen years. During World War II sailing ships lost their meaning; the Bluenose at first still served as a cargo ship and sank in 1946 in the West Indies. In the 60s, the Bluenose II was rebuilt to the original in Lunenburg and is now immortalized on the Canadian 10 cent coin.
Weather permitting, you can take a city tour with one of the original amphibious vehicles, the Harbour Hopper.

Halifax, die Hauptstadt der Provinz Nova Scotia, bildet mit Dartmouth und Bedford ein zusammenhängendes Siedlungsgebiet für weit über eine Viertelmillion Menschen. Dartmouth und Halifax trennt der Hafen und verbindet seit Mitte des 18. Jh. eine Fähre.
Außerdem überspannen zwei große Mautbrücken die Bucht.
Seit jeher ist Halifax ein bedeutender Hafen, und somit verwundert es nicht, dass hier die größte militärische Einrichtung Kanadas angesiedelt ist, die Basis der Atlantikflotte. Auch die Küstenwache hat hier ihren Hauptsitz.
Im Zentrum der Hafenfront liegen die restaurierten Backsteinhäuser und Lagerhallen, die so genannten Historic Properties, die heute wie die ausgedienten Hafengebäude mit Kneipen, Einkaufspassagen, Museen und Galerien für ein zahlungskräftiges Publikum gestaltet wurden. Die ganze äußerlich originalgetreue Anlage bietet einen viel besuchten Anziehungspunkt für Touristen, die dabei auch Schiffe beobachten, oder Glasbläsern bei der Arbeit zuschauen können.
In den Einkaufspassagen befinden sich die üblichen Souvenirs für Touristen, aber wer geduldig sucht, findet auch Raritäten.
Bei alledem hat man stets das Wahrzeichen der Stadt vor Augen, den im Auftrag von Prinz Edward, Herzog von Kent, Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts vor der Zitadelle errichteten Glockenturm, der die Bürger zu mehr Pünktlichkeit erziehen sollte.
Das neben den Historic Properties liegende Kasino mit angeschlossenem Hotel beherrscht den Nordteil der Hafenfront.
Die historische Alexander Keith Brauerei, ein weiterer aufwendig restaurierter Teil der Freizeitmeile dieser Hafenlandschaft beherrscht den Südteil.
Manchmal sieht man im Hafen den Segler Bluenose II. Das Original hielt Anfang des 20. Jh. achtzehn Jahre lang die internationale Fischerei Trophäe als schnellster nordamerikanischer Segler seiner Klasse. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg verloren Segelschiffe ihre Bedeutung; die Bluenose diente zunächst noch als Frachtschiff und sank 1946 bei den westindischen Inseln. In den 60er Jahren wurde die Bluenose II in Lunenburg dem Original nachgebaut und ist heute auf der kanadischen 10 Cent Münze verewigt.
Wenn das Wetter es erlaubt, kann man mit einem der originellen Amphibienfahrzeuge, den Harbour Hoppers, zu einer Stadtrundfahrt aufbrechen.

Stories of our historic downtown Halifax hotel, the Nova Scotian
Tony Pitt came to Halifax by train with his father in 1936 when he was 11 years old. His father, Robert was Resident Manager of the Nova Scotian from 1936 to 1941.
At 86 years old, Tony shared his stories of his time living in the hotel. We were thrilled when Mr. Pitt stayed at the Nova Scotian with his wife, Muriel for the weekend of Nov. 11th!

[한국어 정보]
항구에서 북쪽으로 걸어 가다보면 히스토릭 프로퍼티스가 나온다. 건물들은 19세기, 어업과 해운업을 위한 창고로 쓰였다. 항구의 역사가 고스란히 남아있는 곳이어서 철거를 하지 않고, 대신 식당이나 기념품가게로 사용하고 있다. 이곳에서 유명한 것이 바로 유리공장이다. 직접 사람이 입김을 불어 모양을 내고, 깎아내는 공장은 캐나다에서 이곳이 유일하다. 순전히 사람의 힘으로만 만들어내는데 모양과 크기가 같은 게 기계로 깎아낸 듯하다. “최대한 모든 제품이 반짝반짝 빛나도록 노력합니다. 그것이 우리 공장을 독특하면서도 특별하게 만드는 이유인데요, 캐나다에서 이런 공장은 하나밖에 없습니다.” 대충 빨간 펜으로 유리잔에 표시를 하면 장식을 새겨 넣는 것은 깎는 사람의 몫이다. 한때 쇠퇴의 위기도 있었으나, 요즘 다시 활기를 찾았다고 한다.

When I walked from the harbor to the north comes Historic property Suga. It was written by 19th-century buildings, warehouses for fishing and shipping. History of harbor without a place then demolished remains intact, and is used instead of a restaurant or gift shop. It is the famous glass factory here. Direct person breathes the breath out of shape, cut out factory is the only place in Canada. So much seems to produce only person with the power to shape and size, such as carved into the machine. I try as much as possible so that all products are sparkling shine. Indeyo reason to make it unique and special, yet our plant, this plant is not the only one in Canada. When the show roughly a shot glass with a red pen Putting carved decoration is up to the mower. But also once the crisis of decline, and have found a lively again these days.

We proceed on a tour along Halifax's harbour during the summer months. Halifax Harbour is always part of the city's identity as a major East Coast port since its founding in 1749. It is also the world's second deepest harbour (after Sydney, Australia). The Harbourwalk stretches from Casino Nova Scotia to the Halifax Seaport. The tour highlights the harbour scene around Purdy's Wharf and Privateers Wharf (part of the Historic Properties complex).
