What is Canada famous for? Hockey, maple syrup, poutine, moose, igloos, and the Royal Mounted Police have become pop culture icons of Canada, but we are also famous for our great outdoors, diverse cities, and lively culture.
In the province of Québec, we’re famous for our French Canadian culture, St. Lawrence River, boreal forest and Laurentian mountains. We love that Québec City is one of the most famous destinations in Canada, with its Château Frontenac, authentic historic old city, and magical winter wonderland. It’s also home to one of the best winter festivals in Canada, Carnaval de Québec.
The only fortified city north of Mexico and the birthplace of French Canada, the historic district of Old Québec was declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1985. Known for the world-famous Château Frontenac, Québec City is also known for its rich history, cobblestone streets, European architecture and fortifications. It's a piece of Europe in Canada.
Spend time in Petit-Champlain, enjoy one of the oldest shopping streets in North America, experience Québec City’s religious heritage through its basilicas and churches, and immerse yourself in the city’s military history with visits to the Plains of Abraham, the fortifications and the Citadel.

WHERE SHOULD I TRAVEL IN CANADA?
Canada is the second largest country in the world, and there is an abundance of Canada attractions to discover and enjoy. From the Canadian Rocky Mountains and glacial lakes in Western Canada, grasslands and lakes in the Prairies, to boreal forests, the Laurentian mountains, and charming cities and islands in Eastern Canada, there is an abundance of things to do in Canada on this huge territory.
It takes about seven days to drive from one end of Canada to the other, so when you’re planning your trip to Canada, we recommend choosing Western Canada or Eastern Canada or choosing a specific province to enjoy, like Québec. Of course, you don’t have to drive, you can also fly between provinces, or take a train with VIA Rail. The train journey from Vancouver to Toronto is 4 days and 3 nights, and a train to Montréal or Québec City will add 5-11 hrs to your travel time.
The best Canada tourist attractions can be found stretched across the country. Majestic mountains, and dinosaur digging sites. Glacial lakes, polar bears, and a river filled with migrating beluga whales. World-famous festivals. Important cultural and historic sites. In the province of Québec, you can discover the vibrant cities of Montréal and Québec City, as well as lovely landscapes along the St. Lawrence River in Charlevoix, Bas Saint-Laurent and Gaspésie. In Québec City, the most popular Canada attractions include Château Frontenac, Old Québec City and its fortifications, Ice Hotel, Montmorency Falls and Île d’Orléans.
