Get a feel for the complex history and culture of French Canada at Old Quebec. Often referred to as the Latin Quarter, the World Heritage Site-protected neighborhood consists of an upper and a lower town, and dates back to the early 17th century. Explore the cobbled streets of the citadel, Quebec's original fortification, and be sure not to miss the multitude of quaint churches throughout the neighborhood. From the heights of the upper town, you can enjoy sweeping views out over the water.
