Prince Edward Island has a weel deserved reputation as a picturesque province. The economy is primarily rural, and the farms are well maintained. Where else could you hope to find such perfect images.

The 14 metre high tower at the edge of Lake Ontario is an integral part of the Fort Henry defensive system. It is topped by a conical timber snow roof, which is faceted and clad in sheet metal.
The Murney Tower, on the Kingston waterfront, is one of the four martello towers built to complement the Fort Henry defensive system. Built on 1846, along with Cathcart Tower on Cedar Island, Fort Frederick, ant the tip of what is now the Royal Military College, and Shoal Tower, in the Confederation Basin, the tower helped protect the harbour and approaches to Kingston. The tower is now a National Historic Site, and is open to the public as a museum.
