The City
The guide was updated:
Quebec City boasts a charm one could only find in one of the oldest towns in America. Imbued with history and surrounded by the only fortifications north of Mexico, it is truly a place like no other.
Walking along its cobbled streets and narrow pathways, one is surrounded by an Old France feel—a remnant of the past that has made Quebec City what it is today.
The UNESCO-protected old district and Lower City are where the heart of the province's capital beats the strongest, with tiny eateries and vibrant cafés just a few steps away from street artists. Take a stroll in the Quartier Petit Champlain for some of the best sights in the center or walk by the St. Lawrence, the river that gave Quebec City the name of "where the river narrows."
