Parc de la Jacques-Cartier: view from the lower level
See picture.
Quebec Parliament Building. We passed through this massive provincial government building as part of our Old Quebec tour, but I'll have more to say about it after a planned inside tour next week.
Downtown Quebec City at night. On any of the days that I have been there, the downtown area has always been very busy with people leisurely strolling -- perhaps because of the summer festivities that are underway, or perhaps because that is the way it is. I'm convinced it is more of the latter, as most of the people you see there during non-event periods have a tourist appearance.
One of the amazing performers at Cirque du Soleil in lower Quebec City. The event is summer long, and we had to line up 3 blocks to attend the opening day-- it is free, even though, perhaps to remind us all that it is not to be taken for granted, it also had a "VIP" section, where you needed to have a special pass to get through.
Front view of Pavillon Louis-Jacques Casault.
A friend thought this building looked like a church; another friend, on a different day, said it looked like a prison; yet another friend thought it of it a church-prison -- whatever that means. I don't know what to think of the building because I have not been inside yet.
