Default Quebec City

Quebec City has much to offer as a tourist location and is a UNESCO site. The Citadel located on the highest point of the city is home to the 2nd Battalion R22eR and also contains the R22eR Museum. The Wartime Quebec Conference was held at the Citadel and there is a daily changing of the guard which starts at 1000.

The Naval Museum of Quebec down by the docks is also worth a visit and is a nice walk. In October 1914 the First Contingent consisting of over 30,000 men of the CEF sailed from QC docks in one of the largest convoys to cross the Atlantic.

QC is nice to walk around but keep in mind you need to be in good shape as the topography is steep. The food and service in QC is excellent; Pub St-Patrick has great pub fare, the Brasserie Led Mordus at the Clarendon Hotel has good fish and 1640 Bistro has excellent food. The beer is good in every location.

Have fun.
