Quebec City

Quebec City’s Old Town, with its steep streets and stone buildings, evokes images of the French past. Neon signs glow in the windows of shops and restaurants, and cobblestone streets are lined with horse-drawn carriages. The region’s best-known feat is the clifflike Citadelle, which looms above the St. Lawrence River. It's a city of museums and monuments celebrating its history and culture, as well as a lively music scene.
