Old Quebec Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Europe or Canada? - Old Quebec!
#quebec
When we think of Canada, we think of modern skyscrapers, or the beautiful rocky mountains. But there’s another side that looks like Europe in the province of Quebec!
Visit Old Quebec! Old Quebec is a charming and historic district in Quebec City. Its cobblestone streets, 17th-century architecture, and charming boutiques make it a popular tourist destination. The main street has a lot of quaint shops and restaurants, souvenir stores and also places to try the Canadian classic Maple Taffy!
Old Quebec is a must-see for anyone interested in Quebec's unique history and culture. It is also every photographer’s dream in winter time when it literally turns into winter wonderland with all the ornaments, christmas decorations and snow covering the city.

For the first time in 3 years, I was in Canada for Chinese New Year.
The old Quebec is in my opinion one of the most beautiful places in Canada.
When walking around old Quebec, there are tons of little cute shops and a European vibe.
Enjoy your time in La belle province and don’t forget to eat a poutine! 😊

Quebec City, Canada
I was only here for the day as well. we were driving to the east coast and I begged me dad to stop. Such a beautiful town. Old Quebec is a great day stop. Lots to see and take pictures of and plenty of restaurants to try. My only warning is there was not many public washrooms and by that I mean we never found one. There was a government building that has one but I’d suggest using the washroom every time you see one just in case. Otherwise enjoy walking down every street you never know what you might find. I’d love to go back and have more time to plan what I need to see but for a spontaneous trip I don’t think I could have found a better city. #canada #quebec
Québec City: European charm
Québec City is one the only remaining cities with a fortified City wall. As such, it's a city dipped in history, which its historic center, or the Old Town is largely preserved.
The city is divided into the Upper Town and the Lower Town. Both parts of the city are connected by a cute funicular or a short walk. The Upper Town consists of more modern buildings, such as the famous Château Frontenac and the City Hall. This part of town also offers great views of the surrounding landscape.
The Lower Town, however, is the older part of town and is full of character and charm. You will be forgiven if you think you're in a small town in Europe, or France for that matter. The cobblestone streets, small squares and cute buildings all add to the magical charm of the area. Especially if you go towards dusk when the crowds start to thin out and the evening light seeps through, you might even feel like your in a sort of storybook.
Québec City is a city that is great to explore. You'll find historic buildings and you can savor traditional québécois cuisine. Head here in fall for an extra splash of color and character!

Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Notre-Dame Basilica
This majestic building will get your heart racing with its beauty. Comparable to the Notre-Dame in Paris, this church is one a must-see attraction in North America. The ticket is affordable and the line moves fast, even in Covid times. You can light up a candle or listen to the service. There is a small museum upstairs. The gift shop was closed when I visited in summer 2022.#montreal #canada #travelinspiration #famouschurches #notredame
Celine Dion hosted the wedding cathedral - Notre Dame Cathedral
no mistakes for you, Canada's famous female singer Silin Dion is the wedding held here! The small road along the side has been shocked by the appearance of this church. It is clearly in this crowded old city, but it has a unique temperament. This Gothic Catholic church built in 1829 is known as North America. The biggest church! The tower is nearly 70 meters high and the oldest clock in North America is on the tower in the west. The church can accommodate up to 5,000 people at the same time. Opposite De Arms Square, it is magnificent and magnificent, and the interior is full of art.
When you walk to the door of the cathedral, you will once again feel the heat wave of tourists! There should be no more tourists, there are many people living and working in the local area. After all, during the lunch break, many people sit in the square to rest, chat with friends, or watch the performances of street performers.
When you step into the gates of Notre Dame Cathedral, you will be immersed in the strange mix of romantic luxury and solemnity. The spacious and tall hall, the blue ceiling and the colorful stained glass, each decorative detail is full of art, as if it reflects the richness of "God". The most spectacular of the
cathedral is its magnificent dome, and almost all visitors to the church will look up to appreciate its beautiful dome. Compared to the church that has passed by, it seems crowded or noisy, but I want to be in such a spacious and tall prayer hall, watching the blue ceiling glow like an emerald. The radiance, coupled with the tens of thousands of stars made of pure gold, is full of people, and everyone will be amazed!
If you like in the cathedral, you can stay here all afternoon, sit down in the lobby, watch the church's beautiful layout, or see the tourists coming and going, or really meditate and pray Just do it all. But it took a 1-2 hours for the church to play, and I felt that I was still trying to go out.
Notre Dame Cathedral is the largest church in North America. Its exterior is built in the style of Notre Dame de Paris, so it is affectionately called Little Notre Dame. This is the only attraction we have purchased. The fare is 5 per adult and 4 children under 17 years old. Compared with the simplicity of the outside, entering the church seems to have entered another time and space.
The interior of the church is decorated mainly in dark blue, sky blue, red, silver and gold tones. The spacious and tall hall is intricately decorated, and each decorative detail is full of art. It is definitely the most important tourist attraction in Montreal. Every corner is so meticulous and amazing.

The coolest experience Quebec Ice Hotel
Name Quebec Ice Hotel
coordinates Quebec City suburbs business hours 24H
The best time to play in the winter is open to the public
Recommended reason You may have experienced a variety of luxury hotels in the world, not necessarily touched the chic like it. Only a few days a year, those places can feel its uniqueness.
Transportation Self-driving tour
Queube Ice Hotel Arrives in Quebec, the ice hotel in Quebec is seasonally limited. Construction started in the coldest part of the country in November, which took a month, and the time from opening to closing was less than one season, and it was rebuilt in the second year. Every year the ice sculptures are unique. What is different from other global ice hotels is that it can stand up to the test of the hotel, each room can comfortably bathe in a hot bath, and there will be a warm stove squatting at the bedside.

Canada is more "French" than France
"If Quebec is Canada's France, then Quebec City is France's France."
Quebec is compared with typical North American cities such as New York and Toronto. Like a large garden with a strong European style, when most Canadians speak English, they are full of French.
The most prominent in the city is the castle on the riverside, the Castle Hotel, which used to be the place where Roosevelt and Churchill met, and the Fairmont-Fantina Castle Hotel where many political stars have stayed. The travel expert of Fodor's Travel, the leading travel magazine leader, has selected one of the world's best 100 hotels, standing on the banks of the St. Lawrence River. It is the most iconic landmark in Quebec City and is considered a Canadian hotel lady. people.
We are going to increase the price of this luxury hotel and board this typical French castle overlooking the city.
Old Town Quebec is the most worthwhile visit to the pedestrian street
Lower Quebec City I think it is the most worthwhile to visit and expect, this is a small street -
Rue du Petit - Champlain (Little Champlain Street). The streets are not wide, but they have accommodated too many tourists. There are restaurants, clothing stores, snack bars, souvenir shops and art shops on both sides of the street. People who like to buy and buy, will definitely go back and forth here, do not miss any small shop.
All kinds of shops are selling postcards, refrigerator stickers, exquisite decorations, special snacks, and many European tableware. I dont know how to sell the license plates... Its also to solve afternoon tea or A good place for lunch, a restaurant with a slightly higher online rating, has a long queue at the basic entrance. The characteristics of this pedestrian street are not only the characteristics of each building itself, I think, as I said before, many owners have special care for the facades, window sills, signboards and flower arrangements of their shops. In the same way, you can see the different minds that the master has paid.
Besides the Castle Hotel Square, the tourists here are the most places I have ever seen!
I think Quebec City is the most European city in North America. If you use a beautiful word to describe Quebec City, it is not enough!
Rue Saint-Jean, another particularly lively neighbourhood in Quebec's Upper Town, is lined with a variety of restaurants, shops, snacks, bars, etc. on both sides of the street. Visitors are also coming and going. There are also many street performers performing here.
Because Qubec City uses French as its main language, although I want to use yelp to see if there are any restaurants worth recommending, I have not seen it. Just stop and see that there are people waiting outside the door on the right hand side. It seems that there are quite a lot of people inside, and it is very interesting that you can see what the waiters are making on the scene through the doors and windows, and stand there for a long time. A little touch, this is like a restaurant with a practice pizza!
After dinner, I walked along this street for a long time, and the shops on both sides could not help but want to go in and see! Although a few nights have already smashed several stores, it does not affect the excitement of this street! After all, many bars are still attracting the patronage of many customers. Many of the street seats feel quite casual, just the weather is not hot, and it is quite pleasant to have a drink.
Of course, during the day, there are many people who enjoy afternoon tea or lunch. The flow of people from Wagner Wagner is still very lively! There are also a lot of street performers on this street. The instrument played by this little brother has never been seen before, but the thing in his hand is very common among street performers in North America. It is also amazing to be able to make different tones.

Mount Royal, Montreal, Quebec
view from the peak is definitely worth the climb. be careful if you’re going in the winter as the ice and snow will usually cover the tracks and make for a slippery climb.
Getting There - STM bus 11, 80, 129, 165, 365, 480 and 711
Attractions - Chalet Du Mont Royal
high mountain overlooking Montreal panorama
name Royal Mountain Heights Le Plateau-Mont-Royal
coordinates Parc Ave
Boarding Mount Royal and overlooking Montreal, the night view is really beautiful!
Royal Mountain has a maximum elevation of 233 meters. Although it is not high, Montreal is named here. The park is designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, a famous American designer who designed the Central Park in New York. The park has a pleasant view.
The park in summer is completely covered by green plants. It is green and lush. Walking on the mountain road obviously feels a lot of negative oxygen ions, so we can often see local people running. There will be instructions all the way to the mountains. If you don't understand, you can follow Google Maps. Every mountain road is accurate and you can go straight to the observation deck on the top of the mountain.
I was thinking that if it was autumn, Mount Royal Park was already colorful! The leaves of various vegetation will be of different colors, and they must be quite beautiful. The mountain roads will also be covered with various kinds of fallen leaves. The rustling of the leaves on the leaves will be a different experience. It takes about half an hour to walk to reach the viewing platform. It is actually a big park. At this time, at sunset, the high mountain just blocked the sunshine of the department, and the remaining warm yellow sun just sprinkled on the high-rise buildings in Montreal. I am waiting here quietly, waiting for the setting sun to go down, the night falls, and then look at the night scenes of Montreal.
When the blue sky becomes blue and deeper blue, the city's night market shines sporadically. When the lights of the city are turned on, it illuminates the city of Montreal and illuminates the days of Montreal.

the colors of fall in Montreal, Canada
I couldn’t believe my eyes! look at the colors of these trees…and their contrast with the architectural landscape…every shot is painting!
This is Old Montreal in Canada, one of the North America's most remarkable concentration of 17th, 18th, and 19th-century buildings, Parisian-style quarter located between the harbor and the banking district. Buildings restored in recent decades, mix of residential units, shops and restaurants.
My B&B was just here in Old Montreal in an old restored house, a unique place!
