Overview

To walk through the iron gates of the Halifax Public Gardens is to step back a century; Canada's first public gardens have that effect. Since 1867, visitors have enjoyed the flowers, trees, fountains, a pond and winding paths that will make life seem a little easier. Feed the ducks and count their babies or sit on a bench near the Victorian bandstand and listen to the music and marvel at the beauty of a huge Rhododendron in bloom. Bring lunch, you'll want to stick around.

The Gardens are Beautiful. I enjoy them many days as I work nearby and go there for luchtime with co-workers. The new food kiosk is a great disappointment. The menu is very limited for lunchgoers and the quality of the wraps/sandwiches varies and the place poorly staffed. Once you get it the coffee is excellent however the ice cream is expensive and over the summer we have seen many people with children walk in and quickly out after a price check. This is totally unacceptable for the Public Gardens should be for all to experience, especially children.

Adequate, not spectacular. Green growth in the ponds. Some flower beds are just routine clumps of annuals, but there is enough variety to keep the eyes entertained as a tourist.

Great for photos or meditationby Yahoo | 2007-01-02 23:21:17 |

Right in the heart of the city, this place is fantastic for wedding photos or just a quick need to relax from the daily grind. The ducks still waddle around and the bridge is one of the more popular spots. Even after Hurrican Juan a few years ago, it is coming back nicely and definetly a place to feel good in.
