The upper town in Quebec bears the French charm and for some time you would really forget that you are in Canada and not in any French town. The buildings are all French styled and many of them are Heritage structures. The Chateau Frontenac outshines them all. Its not only huge, it's imposing as well. The visit to the citadel... More

I enjoyed the Upper Town's beauty. I preferred the feel of Lower Town, but it was worth the ride up the funicular to Upper Town. The boardwalk gave great visibility to the lower section, and the horse & carriage rides are available in this section

Walking the streets of the Upper Town is like being in a town in France. You do not need a car because all the sites, hotels and restaurants within this walled city are so close to each other. The must see Chateau Frontenac, the Citadelle, Terrasse Dufferin, Basilica of Notre Dame, etc. are easily accessible to each other. It is... More

It does not take long to picture yourself in France once you are in the heart of Upper Town. The historic Chateau Frontenac, the Citadel, the Cathedral of Notre Dame, the Holy Trinity Anglican Church and quaint shops and restaurants make this a special place.

I hadn't expected such a delightful, well-maintained old city. It is very efficient to walk everywhere, as even the hills are short. Hundreds of dining options, lots of intriguing shops. This should definitely be on your bucket list.

It doen't matter where you explore while in Old Quebec, you will find it visually stimulating and historically rich. The Upper Town with the magnificent Chateau Frontenac is the part of Quebec most often seen in images. The view from the terrace is world class.

While in Old Quebec we stayed in upper town and enjoyed all the the beautiful architecture and history. The Fort and city walls surround the upper city and stone gates allow entry into this area from the rest of Quebec City. We found upper town to be more accessible and less crowded than lower town. Also there seemed to be... More

The small streets take you back on time, this place is great for walking or grabbing a beer at one of the several pubs in the area its pretty much dead during winter
