Tourism in Quebec highlights the region’s historic architecture and scenic river landscapes. Quebec City is emphasized for its UNESCO World Heritage status, featuring cobblestone streets, fortified structures, and landmarks such as the Château Frontenac and Montmorency Falls.

Beyond the capital, travel interest extends to riverside locations along the St. Lawrence River. Cap-Sainte is noted for its 18th-century stone architecture and summer art festivals, while Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pérade, described as the ‘Venice of Canada’, is recognized for its network of canals and bridges where the Sainte-Anne River meets the St. Lawrence.
