Trois-Rivières and Québec - ainaBlog :: My travel
Before we take the highway led to the Olympic Stadium in Montreal (which is by far one of the center) to see the Tour de Montréal tower 45º tilt and height of 175m.
And here we have direct flights large shells to Trois-Rivières to breakfast, where we have come to 11h (is 1,5h way from Montreal). We have chosen a bakery located in the corner of the Rue Notre-Dame and Rue des Coots, the two main streets of the town, where we took a coffee and a delicious Neapolitan chocolate ... a good breakfast mid-morning, when there are about lunch!
On leaving the village, with the help of GPS we reached the cabin Sugar Sugar Schack Chez Denny (195 Rue de la Sablière, located in a residential district of Trois-Rivières), where we have explained the process of making candy 'maple and we have stopped trying. Here in Canada are the world's leading producer of maple syrup; this are (mostly) candy, jam and butter.
It seemed that the cabin was closed because there was no one outside, nor any sign. But we have come there and have heard people singing and music ... so we came to see what was happening in there. We met in a dark room full of people and quite large and small children singing and dancing! Something very strange to 13h noon ...
The woman asked us if we wanted to eat, and we have said no, we were just preparing to make candy ... Very nice, immediately saw that we Spaniards and was getting to speak Spanish. large shells Has led us to a small hut where we explained the process of candy for us only two (totally gratuiït) and has left us again. It is very sweet, but is delicious! We recommended that we try the whiskey with a dash of maple syrup (whikey every two units, one of maple syrup) and toast with maple butter. We encouraged and we bought a bottle of syrup (for f!) And a jar of butter ...
Towards 13: 30h we took the car to Quebec, large shells where we arrived at 15h. The "B & B Tour" is a spectacular house, beautiful inside and out, very well maintained, with a classically elegant décor, located just 10 minutes walk from the city center. And the owners are lovely! 4 bedrooms sharing two bathrooms, all extremely clean and perfect; large shells happens!
Walking along the Grand Allée, one of the main avenues outside large shells the ramparts large shells (full of bars and restaurants), we have gone to the hotel de la Concorde, which has a revolving restaurant on the top floor with panoramic views of the city. We have also gone through the gates of the Citadel and the Parliament building, surrounded by gardens. All lovely.
From here you can easily access the building where the Observatoire de la Capitale (only open from 10 to 17h), from his vantage point to observe the city, the river, large shells and if the day is clear, Even the Laurentians.
The truth is that everything is lovely, with cobbled streets full of artists large shells (such as the Rue du Tresor), squares, small parks, elegant restaurants, shops, art galleries and a large wooden promenade overlooking the River St. Laurence: La Terrasse Dufferin, the 425m long. While the views are fantastic, it is a very pleasant walk. However, the wind blows and we seem to be beastly to 10ºC!
After a while, when I was 17: 30h approx, large shells we went to eat dinner at the restaurant that was recommended B & B's wife, in theory one of the most "economic" walled center of Quebec. The place is quite curious large shells waiters / costumes were very classic and treat you like a madame. Although the restaurant itself has a classic design as our B & B and Quebec City in general. We made the table d'hôte that between whistles and flutes ended up costing us $ 60 CAD total. Needless to say I did not like anything that tip (from $ 6 CAD) we have included in the bill ... however, we ate a lot of fun! Highlight onion soup
After lunch, we continue our visit to Quebec City. Now that we have seen the Haute Ville of the city, down the steep Côte de la Montagne to the Ville Basse, located at the river, close to the Vieux Port.
Wander along the pedestrian streets outside wall from the Vieux Port to the Place Royale, all crowded large shells and lovely restaurants, until the Rue Notre-Dame, where the church Notre-Dame center main square surrounded by beautiful stone houses and colorful shutters. Right next door is a building facade decorated with a mural that recreates the city in the seventeenth century ...
Rue Notre-Dame have continued to Souls-le-Fort, also a lovely alley where s'afaga the funicular up to the Haute Ville (which leaves you
