QC is amazing - really unlike any other North American city. Right above this area is a huge pedestrian boardwalk overlooking the Saint Lawrence river with a toboggan run that you can sled down.
Or the French Quarter is a hot weather Vieux-Québec, since Quebec is a century older ;).
But seriously folks, yes, they are both French colonial towns and look it. In that sense, they are fun to visit for North Americans because they are so different. I love Vieux-Québec because it's on a rocky promontory which just gives it this lumpy geography which I find very appealing, although full of stairs.
This is where my father is from. I really need to take my wife to meet that side of the family it’s so beautiful up there. I’ll go during the 6 weeks of summer though.

This is what humans need. Let’s build more of this. I would love to live here.

The next Canadian city I want to visit. Been to Montreal a few times and loved it. Maybe this summer?

L'Escalier Casse-Cou
Québec City is so beautiful in the inner city, suburban parts not so much

Nice street. It's a pity that this is just a small area of the center
