Montmorency falls

Québec City blends Old World charm with riverfront drama. Cobblestoned streets wind through the fortified Old Town—UNESCO-listed—where the copper-roofed Château Frontenac crowns cliffs above the St. Lawrence. French is the city’s heartbeat, from boulangeries and lively bistros to summer festivals and the winter Carnaval. Neighbourhoods like Petit-Champlain and Saint-Roch mix heritage façades with creative shops, cafés, and street art. Seasons shape everything: maple-bright autumns, deep-snow winters with toboggan runs, and sunlit terraces in June. It’s compact, walkable, and wonderfully photogenic, with history and modern life sharing the same narrow streets.
