    I took my camera down to the public gardens to snap some pictures. It was a beautiful day and there were lots of flowers, statues, animals, and decorations to look at and take pictures of.

    We lucked out on a beautiful day to visit. Had a lovely time and we had the chance to check out how a number of local artist viewed the park through the work they were creating. It was incredible!

    If you are in downtown Halifax and need a break from the noise and the crowd, this is the one place to go. The garden is beautiful in full bloom. It is one of the rare Victorian Gardens in Canada. In the summer, people can enjoy concerts in the park. There is also lots of people who like to read by the pond where you can see a miniature replica of the Titanic. Another interesting thing to do: walk around and admire the fountains.
