Walk the ramparts of the old town, admire the Château Frontenac and ride the funicular down to the Petit-Champlain quarter.
Quebec City
The singular image of Quebec city is the hilltop citadel hotel surrounded by cannons - representing the only fortress on the North American continent. Built to evoke a mountain castle, Chateau Frontenac sits atop a cape above the St. Lawrence River.
The hotel is part of the city's Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and with all the stone buildings and winding streets, you'll think you're in Europe. You can take the funicular or the zig-zag hairpin bends to the cobbled streets of the Petit Champlain Quarter. Many structures here date back to Quebec City's beginnings, and highlights include Notre Dame des Victoires and the Musée de la Civilisation.
There are charming squares, numerous churches, interesting museums and the Grand theatre of Quebec. In addition to Quebec's architectural beauty, you will have a chance to discover the Old Port public market, where you will meet its sellers and explore the wealth of artisan products made in Quebec such as jewellery, goat milk ,soaps, luscious liqueurs and renowned Quebec cheeses.
