~ montréal & québec city








The Notre-Dame Basilica of Montréal, whose history originates with the founding of city in 1642.











The beautiful high altar of the Cathedral, built around 1875.




Bronze sculpture wall in the Cathedral.










Québec City, the heart of French Canada, with the imposing Château Frontenac dominating its skyline.







The Old City, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is divided into the walled Upper Town (or Haute-Ville)
and the colourful Lower Town
(or Basse-Ville).




Street at the picturesque Quartier Petit Champlain in the Basse-Ville.











A charming window display at one of the many quaint shops in
Québec City.







Everybody's favourite "interactive" wall, where the most imaginative poses are made to pretend that one is part of the painting. Great for photo-taking!
