Locations
Towering cliffs, sandy beaches and snow capped peaks; where the quality of a summer can be determined by the amount of icebergs floating by; and where the New World's oldest city sees glass office buildings snuggled against centuries-old stone houses. Welcome to the far east of the western world...
Newfoundland & Labrador has a unique and beautiful landscape, rich in history and culture. Geographically, spiritually and politically, Newfoundland and Labrador serves as the bridge from the Old World to the New; being both North America's oldest "nation" and Canada's youngest province. Forests are bordered by rocky beaches and far-stretching plains, while cliffs to rival Dover's stand sentinel against a battering North Atlantic. Here the definition of "town" stretches from tiny coves almost carved out of rocky faces, to St. John's Victoria row-houses, and on to the modern suburbs which characterize just about 'anywhere'. On film and television, Newfoundland and Labrador has represented locations as diverse as medieval Scandinavia, to modern New England, to far-flung alien worlds.
