Dufferin Terrace is a grand wooden promenade offering sweeping views of the St. Lawrence River. Here stands Château Frontenac, the world’s most photographed hotel and a symbol of Québec City’s elegance and charm.
Royal Battery

The Royal Battery is a stone bastion built in 1691 by Governor Frontenac to defend Québec from ships on the St. Lawrence, now beautifully restored with cannons overlooking the river.
La Fresque des Quebecois

A massive fresco celebrating more than 400 years of Québec’s history through colourful portraits of key figures, from explorers to artists.
Quartier Petit Champlain

5 min

We’ll finish our stroll along Rue du Petit-Champlain, one of the most charming streets in Canada, filled with cozy boutiques, cafés, and artisans’ shops nestled at the foot of the cliffs.
