Quebec tourism highlights historic cities and scenic waterways

Quebec offers diverse travel experiences ranging from the historic streets of Quebec City to the scenic waterways of the Mauricie region. Quebec City is noted for its Old Quebec district, featuring cobblestone streets, local food tours, and landmarks such as the Château Frontenac and Montmorency Falls.

In the Mauricie region, the municipality of Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pérade is recognized as the ‘Venice of Canada’ due to its extensive network of canals, bridges, and islands located where the Sainte-Anne River meets the St. Lawrence River. Founded in 1693, the village serves as a commercial hub for the Chenaux Regional County Municipality and is a key stop along Le Chemin du Roy, a historic heritage route connecting Quebec City and Montreal.
