This is one of my favorite cities I’ve ever visited! Dreaming of going to France someday, being in Old Quebec made me feel closer to that dream. Walking through the streets and hearing people speak Canadian French as their native language, along with the sight of the historic buildings from when French civilization thrived here, made me think, “I never want to leave this place”—this city truly stole my heart.
During our brief stay in Old Quebec, we made sure to visit some of the famous tourist spots. Old Quebec is the only walled city in North America—yes, it literally has walls! These large stone walls, built during the colonial era, surround Old Quebec and have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. And of course, with walls, there are gates, just like those in Disney movies. They even have kalesas, which adds to the charming feeling of being transported back in time!
Getting there:
We traveled from Montreal going to Old Quebec. The train ride is approximately 3 to 4 hours. It cost us $84 for an economy seat.
6. La Citadelle de Queébec
La Citadelle de Québec is located at the top of Cap Diamond. It is the most important British fortress built in North America. This historical site served as the defensive system back in the old times.

Modern city awaits
