Canada | Newfoundland Saved All Its Colors for St. John’s 🌈

St. John’s, the capital of Newfoundland, is North America’s oldest city 🏰. Perched on Canada’s northeastern edge, just a sea away from Europe, it’s shaped by a unique dialect and coastal charm. Color was my first impression of St. John’s—here’s a "Chromatic Citywalk" route you can finish in a day! 👇 Signal Hill 📡 In 1901, Guglielmo Marconi received the first transatlantic wireless signal here—literally a signal hill! A 5km hike (231m elevation) rewards you with panoramic views of the city and fjords. Jellybean Row 🏡 Downtown’s iconic rainbow houses—each painted a different color from its neighbors (and regularly refreshed), creating a real-life fairy tale. The Rooms Museum & Art Gallery 🖼️ The 4th-floor gallery glows in soft hues, currently featuring a massive fin whale skull sculpture, blending Newfoundland’s wildlife, landscapes, and faces. The café’s floor-to-ceiling windows? Perfect for sipping coffee with a view. Quidi Vidi Village 🎣 Artisan Studios: Handmade treasures like wooden puffins and ceramic cat pendants. Quidi Vidi Brewery: Try their glacier-water beer—crisp and refreshing! ❄️🍺 Sheraton Hotel Corner Room 🏨 (Formerly a Fairmont—always prime locations!) Book the corner room—it has the best views, including Lego-like exploration ships in the harbor! Fish Exchange 🦞 A harborfront spot (reserve ahead!). Their lobster pasta suits Asian palates, and the menu even has Chinese fusion dishes—yay for surprises! ✨ Pro Tip: Copy my itinerary link—generate the same route in 1 minute (and invite friends to edit!). Drag & drop stops to optimize your walk—no detours! 🗺️ #PiTravel #1MinTripPlan #Newfoundland #Canada 🇨🇦
