Capital of Newfoundland and Labrador, St. John's will transport you. Perched on solid rock and surrounded by dramatic cliffs, lighthouses, whales and icebergs, Canada's oldest city is a place of contrasts; a marriage of raw and refined. Whether it's the steep streets lined with colorful houses, the sunrises creating a dance of hues over the Atlantic, or its sombre rock plunging straight into the deep blue sea, St. John’s always shows off its true colours.The city at the end of the world is like an urban oasis in the wilderness — and all just a short flight from Toronto or Montreal.
