Description:
This unique transport dates back to 1879, when William Griffith had it constructed to carry Québec's residents and tourists from Sous-le-Fort in Upper Town to Lower Town's rue Ste-Anne. The only such funiculaire in Canada, it travels at a 45° angle for more than 200 feet, all the while offering a terrific panoramic view of the city and the St. Lawrence River. Take a minute to browse through the souvenir shop, where you'll find several neat gift ideas.
