Not only a town rich with history, as the former entry point of a majority of immigrants and refugees and the house of the cemetery of Titanic victims, Halifax is also surprisingly young at heart, with a famously colourful music, pub, festival and dining culture. The City of Trees hosts annual events such as International Busker Festival, Atlantic Jazz Festival and the Royal Nova Scotia International Tattoo.
