Quebec Lower Town (Basse-Ville)

Nestled between Upper Town (Haute-Ville) and the St. Lawrence River, Quebec Lower Town (Basse-Ville) forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Old Quebec (Vieux-Québec). This historic neighborhood features cobbled streets lined with charming boutiques, galleries, and French-style bistros. At its heart lies Place Royale, the site of the first settlement of New France, where visitors can explore the rich colonial history. Today, guests can wander through the narrow, winding lanes, savor local cuisine, and immerse themselves in the vibrant, centuries-old atmosphere.
