Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island's capital city, is a charming blend of lovingly preserved 19th century buildings and the latest in shopping malls, nightclubs, cinemas and live theatre. The city was named for Charlotte, consort of King George III. Set on a sheltered harbour in the centre of the Island, the city is a perfect base for touring the rest of the province.
With a population of less than 20,000 Charlottetown is compact, safe and just right for sightseeing. A stroll around the provincial capital will delight the eye as you see Canada's history in the many old homes that have been preserved; and in Province House, a National Historic Site, several rooms have been outfitted in the style of 1864. It’s time to discover Charlottetown - you could be here!
