哈利法克斯公共公园
微寒意的微风,经春天庭院路(Spring Garden Road),穿越北美最早的公共花园——哈利法克斯公共花园(Halifax Public Gardens),登上城市最高地 —— 二百六十二年前由英国将军爱德华·康沃利斯(EdwardCornwallis)主持修建的军事基地旧址,现在的城堡山国家…
The Halifax Public Gardens are more than an open space or park. They are a rare example of a formal Victorian public garden surviving intact and relatively unspoiled in the heart of a modern city.
Officially opened in 1867 The Halifax Public Gardens have survived for more than a century. Thanks to a series of talented and dedicated superintendents they have been little altered and still retain much of their original Victorian character.
However, for as long as urban development is on the rise and the city of Halifax continues to grow the welfare of the gardens will be threatened. The Friends of the Public Gardens is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation, enhancement and protection of this unique national treasure.
This website contains valuable information about the Public Gardens, their history, their remarkable plant and bird life, their unique statues and fountains and the Friends who are fighting to keep their legacy alive.
