What are the "must sees" in Quebec

[hisfirstm8]

We will be in Quebec city for 2 days on our cruise in October. Can you suggest some places to see or things to go that we wouldn't want to miss. Thanks I have never been up north before, always the Caribbean.

Hi Barbara..... Quebec is a wonderful city for just walking around and soaking up the atmosphere. This year it is celebrating the 400th. anniversary of its' founding so no dobut there will be lots going on. Check out some of the links on the site below and you should come up with some ideas of things to do for your visit. Hope you have a great time.

Quebec City or Quebec the province?

 

Quebec City....

 

Old Quebec, Lower Town & Upper Town

The funicular and the Stairs (Casse Cou, the neck breaker)

The museum of Civilization

Shopping in Old Quebec on the streets

Plains of Abraham

Place Royale

National Assembly

The Citadel

Chateau Frontenac (High tea)

Notre Dame du Quebec

Montmorency Falls

Cartier-Brebeuf National Historic Site

Coffee in the cafes, dinner in a beautiful restaurant and dancing in the clubs

 

Unfortunately the Armoury was beautiful, but it burnt down this year.

 

Quebec the province... you can't do in two days. In fact, you can't really do it in two weeks.

 

Gaspe Peninsula and Percé rock

Rimouski and the St-Lawrence estuary

Baie St-Catherine/Tadoussac and the Whales

Montreal

The Eastern Townships (Estrie) and it's natural beauty and beautiful B&Bs

The Laurentian Mountains, St-Saveur and Mont Tremblant

 

I can keep on going, from artist towns to the big city.
