Captured Escape Rooms
Tourist attraction
👍 Overall fun! We did the pirate brig room and went as a group of 5 people. I wouldn’t recommend more as it was a bit cramped in the room, but we were fine. The puzzles were mostly locks and figuring them out was a nice amount of difficult. The room was a 2/5 difficulty level and for a group who do...

👍👍 The Halifax Old Town Clock is located as part of the Fort George / Halifax Citadel. It was originally opened in 1803 and has gone through several restorations since then. You can spot this from many angles. Didn't seem like you could go inside or really find out much more about it.

Victoria Park
Park
😠 The park fills up with homeless people and their tents that the police regularly move on when it gets too much of a sorry sight. People living in the area have been warned about increased drug use and used needles lying on the ground. It may have been nice at one.point but it isn't anymore.
