Despite my friend told me
that when the autumn maple leaf red, Quebec City is the most beautiful. Or in
the winter when the Snow gleams white, also have a flavor. But I think, to
enjoy the beauty of the summer in Quebec City, I have been satisfied, because
the city of Quebec is
very beautiful at any time.
In Quebec City, a corner
is a landscape, and then go forward ten meters is a landscape. You cannot
worry, do not expect one or two days will be able to see the scenery, otherwise
it will feel very tired, for the beauty of greed, after all, it will make
people suffer. Here, it is suitable for a leisurely lifestyle, suitable for
quiet sentiment. During the trip, everyone has a different purpose and
destination of travel, charm and style will be greatly different. For Forrest
Gump, the best way to explore the jungle of the city, that is to use their own
pace, measured every inch of land.
The whole city is a park,
on both sides of the street is the elm, stroll in the ancient city of narrow
streets and alleys, vaguely heard sound of a guitar, trance,
thought is a historical symbol, turn but see street musicians. Street turn
left, right corner, seems to tell you don't rush to a specific place.
Notre-Dame-de-Quebec Basilica-Cathedral,
it is largest church in Quebec, with 350 years of history. It is the oldest
church in North America (north of Mexico). The church building itself had
suffered fire several times and earthquake, and now see the church is renovation
in 1925. Baroque architecture, about two different shape steeple is the biggest
feature.
The architecture of the
city of Quebec also makes me drunk. If careful observation, you will find in
Quebec City streets, subway station inadvertently building decoration, if not
gorgeous, are saturated with the cultivation of art. Even a few tonal
collocation, a few decorative brick pile, as you can see is after careful
scrutiny. Many very old city walls, people often seems to be very casually in a
few strokes, immediately full wall unripe brightness!
See this scene, you don't
think that is through the time tunnel, actually this is the 18th century, it is
just a big wall painting. It is art ideas and skills, the cross-century
dialogue performance is so vivid, so incredible!
Quebec's most famous
street called Petit Champlain (Rue du Petit-Champlain), Petit Champlain (Rue du
Petit-Champlain) is the old city of Lower Town the most attractive to visitors
of a region. In the period of New France, Petit Champlain (Rue du
Petit-Champlain) is a riverside village, the development has yet
to be known as North America's oldest shopping street, more known as
"North America's oldest bustling street". Petit Champlain (the Rue du
Petit - Champlain) road on both sides is full of the 17th century French rural
construction, the whole street is full of rich French amorous feelings. Around
the streets lined with different with European architectural style of the small
shops, beautiful goods let tourists overwhelmed, with a comfortable pace, you
have to revel in Petit Champlain (Rue du Petit-Champlain) street of history and
customs.
From the Chateau
Frontenac to the St. Louis area this section of the street, you can see many of
the atmosphere is very good restaurant, coffee shops, unique shops,
restaurants, provide the local cuisine, the French cuisine, seafood, Japanese
food, muffins, cookies, etc. On both sides of the street are mostly built of
brick buildings, looks very neat and beautiful, is a good place for walking,
shopping.
Located about 1 km north
of Quebec City, Montmonency Fall, which is the Montmonency River, formed by the
falling from the sides of the 83 meters high vertical. Its height is 1.5 times
that of the Niagara Falls is huge, very spectacular. In winter, the waterfall
with only a thin one, the rest are frozen, form a like white ice wall, often
have love to stimulate people to climb.
Beside the waterfall
along the mountain has a ladder, and there are many close view organ paths,
pavilions, Bridges, can let visitors are more likely to feel the magnificent
scenery of the waterfall. Beside the waterfall there is an elegant buildings,
is affiliated to the waterfall French restaurant, supply delicious French
cuisine and local cuisine in Quebec. Waterfall in front of the lake will freeze
in winter, if the ice is thick enough, can be in the above snow motorcycle, and
sets in the waterfall of water, after the fall, will be a steamed bread of snow
and ice mound, provide an excellent slope slide flat-bottomed sleigh.
Quebec City is the most
European city in North America, if use a word "beauty" to describe
Quebec city also enough, here, to watch the river in spring, summer flowers,
reward maple autumn, winter snow, an endless stream of visitors all year round.
