We've compiled the best of the best in Quebec City - browse our top choices for the top things to see or do during your stay.
Styled after the Empire State Building, this 17-story Art Deco structure was the city's first skyscraper when it was built in 1929. It served as headquarters of the Price Brothers Company, a lumber firm founded by Sir William Price, and today is an official residence of the premier of Québec, who uses the top two floors.
This stately stone house, actually three residences unified into one, was built in 1752 for the shipowner Jean-Baptiste Chevalier. Its location near the docks was highly sought after by import-export merchants, and later by innkeepers. The architecture is quintessential New France, with its distinctive mansard roof and striking scarlet color. Although the building is not open to visitors, its exterior is exceptionally well worth a look.
