    I've been to and love them all! However, taking a leisurely stroll along the narrow streets of Place Royal is always an adventure (so many cool little shops), very relaxing, and it's hard to beat. Can't wait to visit again and see how the renovations around Place de l'Hôtel-de-Ville & City Hall are going.

    Great video. Certainly brings back memories, i was fortunate to have studied in the old city for 2 years just before uni. It was a magical time. In summer, there are loads of festivals and activities, so its buzzing with people. In winter, the looks are simply majestic, with the old buildings under the fresh snow. Postcard perfect. If you haven't visited, summer or winter, its certainly worth the stop 😊

    Wow, what a wonderful annual tradition. Do you tend to revisit your favourite spots or go to new ones? I imagine a mix of both? I appreciate the tip about visiting in the fall. Autumn weather is perfect for travelling, I think. I'm curious if you've been for the winter carnival and what you think. I've wanted to experience it ever since studying it in French class at school. :)

Not far from Quebec City, you can go to the water slides at Village Vacances Valcartier, and the Bora Park during winter, and you can visit the huron village of Wendake, where you can visit the Hotel-Musee and a longhouse, one of the most unique church with the addition of native crafted arts, and a few km further, there is another reconstitution of an old natives village with guided tours and traditional dancing and singing .

    Not sure that Church built in 1688 is the oldest Church building in North America. Not far from me is the Hingham, Massachusetts (completed in 1681). Some of the Spanish missions are older than that. Perhaps the Quebec church is the oldest church in Canada or the oldest Catholic Church? I'll certainly have to stop off and see it though!
