✨ Insights de voyage IA

🧳 Résumé : Quebec City, the capital of the province of Quebec, is a historic UNESCO World Heritage site known for its well‑preserved Old Town (Vieux‑Québec) with cobblestone streets, fortified walls, and French‑Canadian charm. Visitors can explore landmarks such as the Château Frontenac, the Citadel, Place Royale, and the Plains of Abraham, while enjoying the St. Lawrence River waterfront and nearby natural attractions like Montmorency Falls.

👉 Astuce : Buy a “Québec City Pass” to get free or discounted entry to major attractions and use the free public shuttle (Le Bus R) that circulates between Old Town, the Upper Town, and the waterfront, making it easy to walk the steep streets without fatigue.

🔆 Point fort : Don’t miss the nightly sound‑and‑light show at the Citadel during summer evenings, and be sure to try the local specialty poutine topped with cheese curds and gravy, as well as fresh Atlantic salmon dishes at restaurants in the Old Port.
