See the city from up high!

According to the prestigious Travel + Leisure magazine, the Observatoire de la Capitale offers the best view of Québec City. Sitting proudly on the 31st floor of the Marie-Guyant building at the heart of Parliament Hill, the Observatoire de la Capitale, recipient of a TripAdvisor certificate of excellence, will be presenting a new exhibition as of mid-May: the Horizons circuit.
