Halifax Public Gardens

	Map		Reviews

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.

The aim of the urban Victorian garden was to display a great variety of plants in a confined space. Confined, that is, by the standards of aristocratic country estates or the great landscape gardens of the eighteenth century. The Halifax Public Gardens, filled with a wide variety of species, large and small, from near and far, has more than achieved this aim. While the colourful display of plants and flowers is one of the chief reasons for the garden's popularity, its tranquil atmosphere is also an element in attracting visitors. The abundance and variety of bird life found in this unique retreat are an integral part of the area's delightful setting.
