Citadel of Quebec

4.5/5(760 reviews)

One of Quebec’s most distinctive sights is a century-old fortress that is also one of the largest military fortifications in North America.

Dufferin Terrace

4.5/5(111 reviews)

Some of the best views in the city, and a huge ice slide in winter, can be enjoyed from this promenade high above the St. Lawrence River.

We walked the Governors Walk returning from the Citadel to Le Hotel Frontenac. Beautifully done! It hugs the side of the cliff high above the St Lawerence River. Great views and if you built tree houses as a kid, this will take you back.
