Located at the mouth of the St. Lawrence River, the city of Québec will charm you with its culture, its architecture of mixed French and British influence, and its diversified cuisine. Well known for its Old World charm combined with New World comfort, it is the only fortified city north of Mexico. Since 1985, its historical district has been on UNESCO’s World Heritage List.

In summer and winter, the provincial capital offers a wealth of discoveries and activities for all tastes. Whether you wish to visit one of our museums or historical sites, or participate in an outdoor activity or extreme winter sport, you will be only minutes away from most of the tourist attractions the city has on offer. And let’s not forget the Québec Carnival, the largest winter carnival in the world, which has made us “experts in winter festivities”. The Carnival will be under way during the 2010 Congress.

With its affordable accommodations and the legendary hospitality of its citizens, it’s not surprising that the city of Québec welcomes over four million tourists each year!

How about extending your stay in the city of Québec?

You won't want to miss the fun at the Carnaval de Québec: snow sculptures, canoe races and the spectacular parades: www.carnaval.qc.ca/program.html.

Take advantage of everything Québec winters have to offer! Within the vicinity of the city of Québec, you can look forward to a wonderful time skiing, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing, or perhaps you might enjoy snowmobiling, ice fishing or a dog sled ride. And to relax, what better than allowing yourself to be pampered at a health spa?
