About Quebec

Quebec is truly an anomaly; it is the only province in Canada with more French than English speakers, with French as the only official language. Quebec actually means 'where the river narrows' in Algonquian, one the First Nations tribes that originally settled the land, including theIroquois and Inuits, Cree, Innu, Mi'kimaq and Abenaki, amongst others. The French influence of Quebec originally came from Jacques Cartier, who officially claimed Quebec in Kin Francis' name in 1534.

Quebec has a number of exciting historical and cultural attractions for any tourist to enjoy, in addition to a wide variety of outdoor activities and festivals. If you're already thinking about paying a visit to Quebec, be sure to take a look at cheap flights to Quebec, in order to assist with any plan making.

Come visit Old Quebec, the oldest part of the city of Quebec and the only fortified city north of Mexico. Old Quebec is everything that a tourist could hope for, delivering rustic, European charm all too reminiscent of France. There are plenty of little winding alleyways which supply endless hours of strolling and shopping, and a number of little cafes and eateries that you can stop in to have a bite or a meal.

While you're in Old Quebec, be sure to check out the Place Royale, the oldest square in Canada. The square was built by Samuel de Champlain and was once the center of trading and business in all of Quebec. Be sure to check out the bust of Louis XIV and other remnants of French history which has left its mark. Place Royale combines some of the best part of tourism: history, fashion and food, and all in one concentrated area.

If you've ever wanted to see an active military garrison, and the largest British fortress in North America, than look no further than the Citadel/Royal 22e Regiment Museum. Due to the citadel's location as the highest point in Quebec, it offers stunning views of the city and the Saint Lawrence River. Because this is an active military garrison, you are required to stay with your tour at all times. Be sure to arrive in time for the changing of the guard at 10 a.m., in the summertime. The Royal 22e Regiment Museum covers over 300 years of military history, and is chalk full of historical and military artifacts, such as uniforms, weapons and personal belongings of former soldiers. The citadel and museum are wildly popular tourist destinations, and are highly recommended.

If you're someone who tends to prefer the great outdoors, Montgomery Falls, located only a few miles from Old Quebec, is a sight to be seen. This breathtaking waterfall is actually 1 1/2 times as high as Niagara Falls, and incredibly beautiful to behold. Take a hike around the falls, or check out the views from the Montgomery Falls cable cars, or the restaurant that's located at the top of the fall.

Interested in checking out the local Quebec art scene? Than Musee National des Beaux Arts is just the museum you'll need to visit. The museum specializes in art from local Quebec artists, but also has rotating exhibits from international artists. The museum's collection is housed in three different building, each with its own unique style and art collections that it houses. The museums' collection spans from the late 1800's until present, and also features Inuit art. The buildings are architecturally stunning in their own right, and certainly warrant a visit.
