The capital of the province of Quebec, Quebec City is the largest city in eastern Quebec. This beautiful city is as unique a city as they come. This city is full of attractions and fascinating discoveries. Quebec City embraces portraits of easy living, rich heritage, thriving cultural scenes and unsurpassable tourist appeal. Listed by Money Magazine as one of the top 10 tourist destinations, Quebec City is truly one-of-a-kind.
The city stretches out from the shores of the St. Lawrence River, one of the largest rivers in the world. The city’s rocky highest point, Cape Diamond, hovers 103 meters above the river, enhancing the flavor of the area. Two main bridges, the Quebec Bridge and Pierre Laporte Bridge connect the city with the south shore of the St. Lawrence River with a ferry service to the city of Levis. This spectacular city acts as a link between Europe and the America’s and plays a key role internationally.
Although it is well-known for its bountiful history, Quebec City is vibrant, modern, safe and the cost of living is reasonable. Quebec City was ranked as the “Best Canadian City for Families” in 2001. As the cradle of French civilization in North America, this city is gloriously preparing to celebrate its 400th anniversary in 2008.
