The Citadel that Overlooks the Atlantic Ocean<\/span><\/h4>\n
\n

Canada<\/strong>\u00a0is a huge country that offers tourists a large number of wonderful attractions to visit and explore. One of those not to be missed is Halifax, the capital city of\u00a0Nova Scotia<\/strong>\u00a0found on the east coast of Canada and one of the places you can visit on an\u00a0MSC Cruise.<\/span><\/p>\n

Each city has a symbol that represents it more than anything else: for Halifax, its\u00a0citadel<\/strong>\u00a0that dates back to the late 18th century, famous in Canada both for its beauty and for its historical importance, fills that role. Inside the\u00a0star-shaped citadel<\/strong>, you can explore the history of Halifax on\u00a0guided tours<\/strong>. The museum staff, dressed as soldiers of the army and navy, will show you the clothes used in the past and other items in maritime activities.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
To the south-west of the city, your MSC cruise will offer you an excursion to one of the most beautiful and evocative settings on the\u00a0Atlantic coa<\/strong>st<\/strong>, the small village of\u00a0Peggy’s Cove<\/strong>, famous for its red lighthouse that was built in 1868. In this fishing village, elements of nature and domestic intimacy coexist: it is a land of boulders eroded by\u00a0glaciers<\/strong>\u00a0where<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

the presence of humans can be found only in a handful of colorful houses and fishing shacks over the waters of the marina. The village\u00a0lighthouse<\/strong>\u00a0stands on top of a granite outcropping, made slippery by the splashes of the ocean waves.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Less than a kilometer from the public gardens of Halifax can be found another place of great historical-cultural interest that you can visit on your MSC cruise: the\u00a0Fairview Cemetery<\/strong>, a Canadian cemetery, famous for being the resting place for 121 victims of the shipwreck of the\u00a0Titanic<\/strong>.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Halifax’s connection with the famous\u00a0naval tragedy<\/strong>\u00a0on April 15, 1912 can also be seen at the\u00a0Maritime Museum of the Atlantic<\/strong>, which houses an excellent permanent exhibition on the disaster, including photographs, wooden artifacts and the only\u00a0intact Titanic deckchair<\/strong>\u00a0in the world.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
