Journey back in time with a day trip to Quaker House. There's plenty to discover here, with absorbing exhibits and displays to bring you up to speed on your history classes.
There's a fee to visit this collection of historical artifacts, which is situated in Downtown. But there's lots more to explore around these parts than just Quaker House. Halifax Citadel, Public Gardens Park and Dartmouth Crossing are also worth putting on your itinerary.
