        The special natural, historic, cultural and architectural features of "The County", linked by the "webs of life" created by the rural landscapes and vistas, the varied shoreline and beaches, the serenity of the harbours and trails and the active involvement of residents in cultural events has led PEHAC to seek designation of Prince Edward County as a National Cultural Landscape. Here are some examples!
