Three centuries of colonial conquests, a French, English and finally Quebec regime, are at the origins of the unusual architectural aspect of Quebec City.
The French, English, North-American, modern and secular constructions in the same urban scenery, gives the city a very interesting character. You can find here the most precious riches of the Canadian and Quebecois heritage, such as: the Parliament, administrative buildings, provincial politic institutional buildings, public commemorative places, many historic monuments and ancestral dwellings, each one having been restored in the style of the era.
Furthermore there is a range of winter activities to enjoy including skiing on three excellent nearby ski areas.
