400 years of Quebec history
7 major cultural sites in colors
The only walled city north of Mexico, which preserved its ramparts
Take a trip back in time during the Fêtes de la Nouvelle-France, a festival that brings to life the arrival of European settlers and takes in the scene more realistic than the old city. The narrow alleys and cobbled streets dating from the 17th and 18th centuries are filled with vendors perfumes, catchers rats, petty thieves, merchants came for barter, barber-surgeons and old players. Put a period costume and participate in the festival. Hear the roar of a blacksmith at work. Sculpt arrows company of the Huron-Wendat. Grab a bow and try your hand at archery. Become a crier or archaeologist in search of buried treasure. Feel the smell of gunpowder after their muskets. Create arms for your family. Taste of maple syrup on the village market. Quench your thirst then an inn outdoor rhythm accordions and violins that will make you tap your feet. You will realize that despite the centuries, we can always do something new with the old.
