Description:
VIEUX QUEBEC. The historic Quartier Petit-Champlain, which lies in the shadow of Le Château Frontenac, is a-bustle with activity year-round. Rue du Petit-Champlain, North America's first commercial street, offers a wonderful cornucopia of quaint little cafés, galleries and boutiques, placing it high on most visitors' "to do" lists. Pause at the top of the famous Breakneck Stairs, perhaps, to snap a picture or two of Rue du Petit-Champlain as it gradually descends the side of the cliff. |
