- Ellen BHortonville, WI1,413 contributionsWe spent a lovely hour strolling these beautiful gardens. There also is a beautiful statue of the “Maid of Orleans.” If you are in Quebec City, it’s worth your while to visit this lovely contemplative garden.

- PBPGYorkshire, UK8,490 contributionsLaval came to Canada in 1659, He founded the Quebec Seminary in 1663, and became the first bishop of the Diocese of Quebec in 1674. In 2014 he was beatified by Pope Francis. The university was named after him. Not easy to get good pictures, tourist like to sit at the base and you need good light.Written September 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Terry MHamilton, Canada4,923 contributionsA gift from Alberta to Quebec for its 400th anniversary, this collection of iron horses is quite effective, set against the background of the St Lawrence River. Horses were important to New France and Alberta plus places west, between and east too. Those shipped over in 1665 came from the royal stables of Louis XIV.Written August 12, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Indah EdlightzOntario, Canada4,288 contributionsThis area is all new, with the Videotron centre at top and the Grand Marche next to it, its a nicely layed out entertainment complex. We were lucky to visit in the summer when Cirque Feria was performing every night at 9pm. Everyone was up close enjoying the complimentary show. The parking is plentiful and only cost $10.Written August 7, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- BernieVancouver, Canada991 contributionsIn the heart of Old Quebec City, nestled within the charming Place Royale, stands a magnificent bronze bust of King Louis XIV, also known as Louis the Great or the Sun King. The statue exudes an air of elegance and grandeur, befitting the monarch it represents. Despite its size, the intricately crafted features of the statue captivate the attention of passersby. Surrounding the statue, the cobblestone square evokes a Parisian ambiance, transporting visitors to a different time and place. Nearby, a detailed inscription provides insight into the historical significance of King Louis XIV's reign, particularly his influence on Quebec's status as an overseas province under the French royal family.Written October 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- PeteFredericksburg, VA1,230 contributionsIt’s interesting reviewing this Battle much later while finishing a book about guerrilla warfare. My understanding , before touring the battlefield was that the French were in the fortress and left it to come out and meet the British on the Plains of Abraham As I was walking around the perimeter of the fortress, I thought it had sufficient merit to hold up in a defensive posture. But, the armies would face off against each other, in formation, common at the time. The British waited until the last second before firing double rounds of musket balls. Both Generals would die, Montcalm and Wolfe, The Battle had huge implications about the future of the country and it would be very important to build a monument in remembrance.Written May 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Terry MHamilton, Canada4,923 contributionsA Father of Confederation, Cariter was instrumental in getting French Canada to sign on to what would be the Dominion of Canada. Quebec's first parliament building was located in Parc Montmorency. It was in Quebec City in 1864 the preliminary version of the then British North America Act was formulated. He also strove to have Quebec keep the French civil code for its basic legal regime. The bronze statue is a fitting tribute to a leading figure in Canadian history. The park itself can be visited heading down to or coming up from the Lower Town. Behind the statue are good views over the St Lawrence River.Written August 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- PBPGYorkshire, UK8,490 contributionsWe came across this sculpture by accident and thought it was both fantastic and weird.

- Terry MHamilton, Canada4,923 contributionsI had no idea the Jolliet of Marquette and Jolliet fame, discovers [well, western European discoverers] of the upper Mississippi River had a monument in Quebec City. Their great voyage in 1673 paired two interests: Father Marquette for missionary work and fur trader Louis Jolliet for commerce. His marked off monument is to the left of the building if taking the funicular up to Dufferin Terrace. I use the term 'monument' as Jolliet disappeared, missing as of May, 1700. A subsequent mass for his soul was held in Quebec City on September 15, 1700. A sign of his prominence as a trailblazer in New France is his [bottom, far right] statue on the facade of the National Assembly building where his name is spelled with one 'l'.Written August 25, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
