The seaside city of Dartmouth, Nova
Scotia, was founded in 1750, just one year after its neighbouring city,
Halifax, and was incorporated
into the Halifax
Regional Municipality in the mid-nineties. Also known as the "City of Lakes",
the community of Dartmouth is a nature-lover's paradise, boasting numerous opportunities
for hiking, biking and boating. With an extensive boardwalk offering stunning
ocean views, the Dartmouth
Waterfront Park is an excellent place for visitors to spend a day. Costumed
tour guides explain the history of the area at the Quaker
House, a 1786 home that now serves as a tourist attraction, as well as at
the Dartmouth
Heritage Museum, located within the historic Evergreen
House. The
Black Cultural Centre showcases the remarkable history of black people in
early and present-day Nova Scotia. Of course, no trip to Dartmouth would be
complete without strolling along the Shubenacadie
Canal, which meanders through the lush forest of this scenic lake country.
