Quebec City feels like stepping into a European fairytale, and this day is all about soaking in its old-world charm. It starts with the grandeur of Château Frontenac—impossible to miss and even harder to forget—perched above the St. Lawrence like a storybook fortress. A short walk away, the Citadelle offers sweeping views and a peek into Canada’s military history, while the nearby National Assembly adds a dash of stately elegance. Wandering through Old Quebec feels like time travel, with narrow cobblestone streets, pastel storefronts, and the sounds of French floating through the air. The architecture doesn’t just surround you—it invites you in, from stone facades to tucked-away courtyards. Everything is delightfully walkable, with history stitched into every corner and cultural pride on full display. As the afternoon unfolds, there’s space to pause, people-watch, and enjoy the rhythm of the city. The day wraps with a comforting meal at Buffet de L'antiquaire, where local flavors meet a cozy, welcoming vibe.
