Short Summary:
An enclave of French culture and history, wrapped within centuries-old fortifications, Québec City’s historic district is a UNESCO World Heritage Site of ramparts, churches, terrace restaurants and well-trod cobblestone streets.

This bounty is celebrated in the warm-and-welcoming Québécois lifestyle and year-round festivities, from summertime music atop the Plains of Abraham to a frosty toast in the Hôtel de Glace.
