Carte Postale Quebec City Canada

Quebec City, one of North America's oldest settlements, is famous for its European charm and, in winter, for its massive Winter Carnival (Carnaval de Québec). The city's historic core, Old Quebec, a UNESCO World Heritage site with its fortification walls and cobblestone streets, is beautifully blanketed in snow. The iconic Château Frontenac dominates the skyline, overlooking the frozen Saint Lawrence River. Winter in Quebec City is defined by deep snow, sparkling lights, and a festive atmosphere, from the ice hotel (Hôtel de Glace) just outside the city to the historic fortifications and toboggan slides, making it a quintessential winter destination.
