Standing on rue Saint-Louis or Sainte Anne in Vieux Quebec, the old walled city of Quebec, it's easy to imagine that somehow you've arrived in France without having taken a plane or boat to get there. Cobblestone streets, cafes with unscreened windows thrown open to the sidewalk, folks walking home with fresh baguettes and cheeses, table d'hote service all add to the ambience as do people speaking French, the language of the city and Belle Province.
Old Quebec sitting high on the bluff above the Saint Lawrence River, and Quartier Petit-Champlain the lower town, at water's edge, have roots that date to the beginning of the seventeenth century. Due in part to their visual and built heritage, both areas possess a character and charm that eludes most North American cities. Even the area, not encompassed by the fortification, which is home to the Parliament buildings, exciting Grand Allee and Rue Saint Jean with its many churches, epicerie, cafes and unique shops, has qualities that endear it to visitors who return time and time again to partake of its many amenities.
Walking is the key to enjoying old Quebec and the lower town. With the exception of visiting outlying attractions such as Montmorency Falls, the Beaupre Coast and Ile d'Orleans, there's no need for you to use your vehicle in the city. You should plan to spend at least two days exploring Old Quebec and Quartier Petit-Champlain.
