Canada Travel

The final stop of the self-driving trip is Quebec, a city with both ups and downs This city has both the prosperous and declining sides. There are magnificent palace buildings in the sunshine and destitute vagrants under the buildings. You see the comfortable people in street bars, old men reading Game of Thrones in coffee shops, and you also see homeless people swearing against the walls of four-star hotels. Brightness and shadow seem to have clear boundaries, but they do not affect each other and live their own lives. Now that I think about it, this city is quite interesting. A few tips for self-driving: 1. It is recommended to take the city bus first: the city bus here is self-service with earphone explanations (in Chinese), so you can get a general understanding of the city’s history and cultural architecture in more than an hour. 2. It is recommended to book accommodation within the old city: it is very close to major attractions. In addition, I found that the price will be much lower if the hotel is booked for three consecutive nights or more. In addition, if you want to renew your reservation after the deadline, the online app may show that there are no rooms. You can call the front desk to inquire. Generally, there are rooms and the price is the same as the price you booked online. I think this hotel service is quite reasonable. 3. Visiting the waterfall: It is recommended that people with good physical strength can climb the mountain, but be sure to bring waterproof and windproof clothes. I was exhausted after climbing the mountain this time. There was a little wind on the mountain. After sweating and being blown by the wind, I started to have a fever when I returned to the hotel. So people with average physical strength should buy a cable car to go up and down to enjoy the scenery. 4. City Food: This city is indeed a Chinese food desert. Those who like Western food should be fine, so I don’t have any recommendations. I tried the Q-de-Sac Resto-Pub, a popular Western restaurant. The duck legs were pretty good and worth a try. 5. Parking at scenic spots: There are parking places in the old city, but some parking spots are for local residents only. If you see that the parking payment machine is blocked, don't park there. We chose the core tourist spots that charge $25 a day. There will be staff standing there during the day to collect the fees directly. Hotel parking: The hotel I stayed in did not include parking, and there was an additional charge of $27 per night. I looked at the surrounding hotels and they were all similar and did not include parking. I don’t know if it’s because it’s in the old town.
