More information about Québec City
Watch out, or you may fall
under Québec City's spell—it's the only
fortified city in North
America! As you explore the winding side streets, on foot or
in a horse-drawn carriage, the romance of Quebec city will
enrapture you. Curious about the past of this historical
city? Stroll through its oldest neighbourhoods, like Petit
Champlain,
Place-Royale and the
Old Port. Even though this
capital city is steeped in history, the year-round
activities are truly up to date: world-class
winter carnival
and
summer festival, theatre,
exhibitions... and the accommodations and dining are
topnotch!
The
Montmorency Falls, cascading 83 metres down to the river
below (30 metres more than Niagara Falls), are situated on a
historical site of natural beauty in the Montmorency Falls
Park. A cable car runs up to the Manoir Montmorency, where a
restaurant, reception rooms and boutiques await the visitor.
Both the autoroute de la Capitale (A-40) and boulevard
Sainte-Anne (Hwy 138) lead to the Montmorency Falls Park,
located 12 km east of downtown Québec City.
