Halifax (Harbour Entrance from Citadel)

Halifax has one of the noblest harbours in the world. It is accessible, deep, perfectly sheltered and large enough to accommodate the navies of Europe. Several transatlantic lines sail from Halifax. In the center and right distance of the view of George's and McNab's islands, both strongly fortified with modern defensive works. The battery of antiquated guns in the foreground is near the portal of the Citadel. It is used for saluting purposes.
