Excellent shots of a pretty part of a pretty town! My wife and I had lunch at Le Repaire, upper left in last shot.


phlash46, Thank you for your kind comment! I hope that you enjoyed your meal. My wife and l drive down there to have breakfast, lunch, or just a coffee and dessert from time to time, usually in fall, winter or spring, as in summer the place is crowded.

Thank you for sharing these great photos and the commentary. My wife and I had to cancel our trip to QC last year and have yet to reschedule. Would love to do it, though, especially after seeing your photos!👍🤓👍


Gitchigumi, Thank you for stopping by and the kind comments! Do hope that you get the opportunity to reschedule. It is a place worth visiting; certainly unique in Canada.

Great set, GreyOwl. I love old Quebec city. A wonderful place that I must once again revisit.


Cotondog, Many thanks for your kind comments. Quebec City is indeed a special place. However, like yours, this winter has been anything but pleasant. Expecting another 30 - 40 cm of snow this afternoon and tonight. Combined with some cold temperatures and strong winds, it has been a challenge.

GreyOwl40, you’ve captured the magic of Old World charm in the New World. There is no comparable place in the Americas.

Took these early this morning. Being a Saturday, there was light traffic, which greatly facilitated walking out onto the road for a better perspective. The shots of the Chateau were all taken from Dalhousie St. (or just off of it) which runs along the St. Lawrence, just above river level.
All photos taken with a Nikon D7200 with an 18 - 140 lens set at 18mm. Camera was set to scene and landscape.
The narrow street is Petit Champlain, which runs parallel to and near the foot of the cliff - supposedly the oldest street in NA. The Funiculaire is a cable car (actually on rails) that takes pedestrians from lower town to upper town, at the foot of the Chateau.
I have included a photo of the Escalier Case Cou (Breakneck Stairs), one of two sets of steep stairs that also take one from lower town to upper town - a good workout for the lungs. The original stairs were first constructed in 1635.
Thanks for looking.

Great representation of a wonderful and beautiful city. Your pictures are super.

Always enjoy a visit to Quebec City, the people and the sites are fantastic. My last trip was a couple of years ago, we took our (at the time) 7 year old granddaughters, that was tough trying to keep up with them on those stairs, lol.

Very worthwhile city for anyone and everyone to visit. Love the history of it.
