The national capital city of the province of Quebec, Quebec City enjoys an enviable international reputation. Tourists from around the world visit each year to admire the Hôtel du Parlement, the Fortifications of Quebec, Place Royale and Old Quebec, with its stone buildings and narrow streets full of charm.
In fact, the Chemin du Roy begins in the heart of Old Quebec and runs all the way to Montreal, linking these two important centres of the colony of New France. This crucial route accelerated the economic, social and military development of the region at the time, facilitating trade and strengthening ties between local communities.
Dynamic and innovative, Quebec City, often referred to as La Vieille Capitale (the Old Capital), is filled with historical, cultural, culinary and outdoor activities to enjoy throughout the seasons. The city also hosts major events such as the Festival d’été de Québec festival, the Carnaval de Québec winter carnival, the Fêtes de la Nouvelle-France festival and the Grand Prix Cycliste de Québec road race. A true national hub!
