Have visited there a few times while vacationing in the 1000 Islands (New York side). Nice historic city. Reminds me of a northern version of the southern cities of Wilmington, NC, Charleston, SC and Savannah, GA.

We just got home from there today, Canada day, 2019. I’ve been to Kingston several times, because it’s not far from my hometown, Toronto, where I’ve lived my entire my two biggest passions in life are historical architecture and the paranormal, and going to Kingston, I got everything I love and then some. While it’s absolutely beautiful this time of year, packed with thousands of tourists from all around the world, my husband and I went for a walk last night after the evening boat cruise. The streets were almost empty, as we were surrounded by all these gorgeous restored heritage buildings, and I swear to God I could feel the energy coming off the land and from the buildings, the resonance of hundreds of years of history when the British and the French first invaded the area and fought over that land, slaughtering all the indigenous peoples. Vicious acts like that leaves a scar on the land and in the structures, especially since It is also known as the lime stone city, because every structure, at least almost to re-structure is made out of lime stone after most of the city was destroyed in the 1840s after a vicious fire. Not many people know that lime stone is an excellent conductor of paranormal energy, almost acting as a battery of sorts, that can amplify paranormal energy, not to mention the energy caused By such human tragedy during the war in which the natives were slaughtered. Something like that just doesn’t vanish, it leaves behind a mark and an energy that never goes away. Not everyone is sensitive to it, but I do believe that everyone is capable of feeling it if they concentrate. As I stood in the courtyard behind City Hall, which during the day is usually a flea market or a farmers market, it’s a flat, Sharon Square made of lime stone. Just for the briefest of moments I swear to God I could hear people screaming and crying, I could hear what you could best described as an Indian war cry, and Indian ceremonial traditions being played out, yet there was nobody there except myself and my husband. It’s sent such a cold chill up my spine, because I’ve always been able to pick up on these sort of things ever since I was a little kid, it used to scare the hell out of me when I could see and hear things that no one else could, and last night was no exception. I could hear Musket fire, cannon fire, the sounds of war, of amend screening as they are dying, just absolute chaos and the feeling of anger mixed with sorrow unlike anything you could possibly imagine. It permeated every part of me, and I just had to get out of there, as my husband looked at me like I was crazy, because he doesn’t believe that I can sense these things. History is indeed alive and well in Kingston, and if you are like myself, and open to a World not many can see or hear, I guarantee you’re in for one heck of a surprise, and although it did scare me, it also drew me in like a magnet. I have this incredible urge to go back, as I would love to study in detail exactly what happened between the natives and the warring Europeans. To the average layperson, it’s an absolutely beautiful charming city, quite small, with only about 162, 000 people, but with a history on like no other. I had no idea it was of such historical significance in Canadian history, but now that I do know, I am definitely going back there this year. It was only a two hour and 20 minute drive, so if any of you have a chance to go, by all means don’t hesitate, I guarantee you’ll fall in love with it, particularly the downtown waterfront, which is like stepping back in time. Each building perfectly preserved, looking exactly as it did when they were first built in the 1840s and 1850s. It is a history buff’s Paradise, and the paranormal investigators paradise too. If you’re anything like me, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about if you go to visit it. Especially if you hang around downtown just after midnight, where there’s not a soul in sight, but thousands of souls wondering aimlessly through the area, many of them lost and confused, having no idea what had happened to them. The land has been occupied as far back as 9000 years by the native peoples, so you can imagine it has a very unique and distinctive feel to it. Even if you’re not into the history or the paranormal, then you’ll absolutely love the world-class restaurants and boutiques, it has a lot to offer for such a small city, so by all means go there, and if any of you have experienced what I did last night, please let me know, I’d be really interested to hear What you experienced.
